Abstract

Hyper-reactio luteinalis is a rare non-neoplastic tumor-like ovarian lesion associated with pregnancy where there are elevated levels of beta human chorionic gonadotropin characterized by benign enlargement of bilateral ovaries, being incidentally discovered at the time of cesarean section. The condition is rare in normal pregnancy. Abruptio placenta It is defined as premature separation of a normally situated placenta before the delivery of the fetus. It is as an important cause of antepartum hemorrhage (APH). We report a rare case of 28years old G7P1+5 0A with hyper-reactio luteinalis associated with abruptio placentae in a spontaneously conceived singleton pregnancy.
