[Giant retroperitoneal hematoma in the peripartum of a normal delivery, "expectative attitude"]. / Hématome rétropéritonéal géant péripartum d'un accouchement normal, "expectative attitude".

We describe a case involving spontaneous retroperitoneal hematoma complicating a normal delivery in a context of a Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIVC) at the end of the pregnancy. Given the defaced symptomatology, an abdomino-pelvic scanner and an examination with a general anaesthesia made it possible to diagnose and to monitor the hematoma in intensive care. The correction of the hemostasis troubles and of the anemia, without another invasive intervention, allowed a return to home at the eighth day. The pathophysiological mechanisms underlying development and practicable treatments of this post-partum hematoma are discussed.

[Bladder endometriosis and barrenness: diagnostic and treatment strategy]. / Endométriose vésicale et infertilité: modalités de prise en charge diagnostique et thérapeutique.

Deep infiltrating endometriosis is a well-known female disease responsible for chronic pelvic pain, urinary dysfunction, infertility, and altered quality of life. Endometriosis and infertility are complex entities and the optimal choice of management of both of them remains obscure. Mechanism of development of the disease has to be understood to optimize patients care. The link between barrenness and endometriosis is well known, but there is no direct link between bladder lesion and infertility. Bladder endometriosis is a deeply infiltrating endometriosis lesion. Its management is first diagnostic and then remedial. In case of ineffectiveness of medical strategy, surgical treatment is indicated. However, for patient suffering from symptomatic isolated bladder endometriosis, surgical management can be offered in first intention. Isolated bladder injuries due to endometriosis are mostly treated by conservative laparoscopic surgery, after a complete evaluation of endometriosis disease and barrenness by clinical exam and imaging techniques.
