Abstract

Background: Deep vaginal wall hematoma is a common vaginal delivery complication. Exploring effective treatments is key to improving clinical management and patient outcomes. Case: A patient with deep vaginal wall hematoma (admitted in November 2024) underwent hematoma removal, followed by "T"-shaped drainage tube combined with vaginal packing gauze. The treatment achieved remarkable hemostasis; the patient recovered rapidly with well-healed perineal wounds, shorter hospital stays, and low pain scores. Conclusions: Early detection and timely treatment of vaginal wall hematoma, combined with "T"-shaped drainage tube drainage, avoid open abdominal hemostasis and related damage. This method is safe, effective, and worthy of clinical application.
