Spontaneous rupture of the utero-ovarian vessels during pregnancy is a rare condition that can be life-threatening. Endometriosis is one of the factors associated with this complication of the pregnancy. Location of the pain as well as the course of this complication can simulate various diseases that must be dealt with. We describe the case associated with haemoperitoneum and hemorrhagic shock.
