Ruptured Ovarian Artery Aneurysm in a Postmenopausal Female: Case Report.
INTRODUCTION: Ovarian artery aneurysm is a rare diagnosis, primarily associated with late pregnancy and the postpartum period. It can cause life-threatening hemorrhage when ruptured. Even more rare are ovarian artery aneurysms in postmenopausal women.
CASE REPORT: We present a case of a postmenopausal female presenting to the emergency department with flank pain. Point-of-care ultrasound showed free fluid in the abdomen. She was diagnosed with an ovarian artery aneurysm on computed tomography angiography and treated successfully with embolization.
CONCLUSION: Ruptured ovarian artery aneurysm is an uncommon cause of intra-abdominal hemorrhage in women.
