Abstract
Uterine artery pseudoaneurysm (UAP) is a potentially life-threatening complication that can occur after a uterine surgery, dilatation and curettage, traumatic delivery (such as forceps or vacuum delivery) or after other causes of vascular trauma, the most common being a caesarean section (C/S) [1-4]. Some UAP can appear many years after a uterine surgery [2,5] or even after a nontraumatic delivery/abortion or manual removal of the placenta [3,4].
