Here is described 5 cases of UAP who presented with secondary post partum hemorrhage. The patients were sent to our radiology department for colour doppler transvaginal sonography (TVS) examination and were diagnosed as UAP using colour doppler ultrasonography. Four of them were treated with embolization of pseudoaneurysm. One patient had to undergo hysterectomy due to ongoing bleeding.
