Perforated spontaneous intestinal intramural haematoma

Spontaneous intestinal intramural haematomas are uncommon in the absence of trauma and may occur in those on anticoagulation. A young girl presented with generalised abdominal pain and was found to have pneumoperitoneum. She underwent an exploratory laparotomy and was found to have multiple ileal intramural haematomata with an area of possible perforation with a collection of pus. We believe that this is the first reported case of a rupture of spontaneous intestinal intramural haematoma in a young girl with no history of anticoagulation use or coagulation disorders.
