Abstract
Postpartum hemorrhage is among the most frequent obstetric complications and with the highest mortality rate. Uterine atony is one of its main causes. Given the failure of medical management, non-invasive and less morbid therapeutic options such as uterine tamponade are of importance. In this report, we present a case of uterine atony managed with artisanal uterine tamponade with a condom, to which a drainage system is incorporated to quantify blood loss with the balloon in situ with satisfactory bleeding control. Keywords: Uterine tamponade, Postpartum hemorrhage, Uterine atony, Artisanal tamponade, Drainage tamponade.
