AMNIOTIC FLUID EMBOLISM
It is a rare condition, but highly fatal. (5th most common
cause of maternal mortality.). It is a severe obstetrical emergency which occurs either as the first stage ends, though rare, or shortly after separation of the placenta. In either situation, the uterus is injured (torn) or uterine sinuses do not close instantly. So some
amniotic fluid is forced into the maternal circulation by the strong uterine contractions hence embolism.
