Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 1

Abstract

We are reporting a case of anterior vulval varicosities as it is a very rare case , occurring in 4 % of pregnant women and also because of the complications associated with it. Whenever a pregnant lady presents with the complaint of bulging mass , precautions should be taken while doing per speculum examination as they are liable to bleed if appropriate precautions are not taken. They are the consequences of portal hypertension or obstructive pelvic lesions. They may become thrombosed , bleed and cause problems in delivery. But vaginal varicosities per se are not a indication for caesarean section . In the case which we are reporting patient was taken up for caesarean section for obstetric indication.
