Abstract
The presence of a leiomyoma of â¥175â¯cm3, birth weight of â¥2500â¯g, and primipara were found to be predictors for massive intraoperative haemorrhage during caesarean delivery. A leiomyoma â¥175â¯cm3 which is equivalent volume to a 7â¯cm diameter sphere can be diagnosed in the first trimester using sonography. In cases of cesarean delivery with these predictors, preparation for massive haemorrhage, including storage of autologous blood, may be considered.
