The abdominal CT slice shows
a grossly distended suprapubic mass, which in this case was from hematometra. The urinary bladder with an indwelling catheter is seen at the right lower aspect of pelvis.
Teaching points-
- Consider hematometra if you see a suprapubic mass in a menarcheal age group patient.
- Revisit an initial diagnosis of urinary retention if ‘bladder distension’ persists after successful insertion of an indwelling catheter.
