We report on a 50-year-old woman with a decompensated alcoholic liver cirrhosis and Korsakow syndrome since 1991. In July 1992, an abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingoophorectomy was made because of an
endometrial carcinoma
pT1NOMO. A postoperative abscess of the vaginal stump was evacuated. The patient was admitted three years later with a massive vaginal bleeding. Her general appearance and nutritional status were bad. The vaginal bleeding was caused from ruptured varicose pelvic veins secondary to
portal hypertension
. Neither conservative (vaginal tamponade, infusions) nor operative (laparotomy with an intraabdominal and transvaginal tamponade) therapy was successful. The patient died as a result of severe bleedings. We discuss differential diagnostics and planning therapy.
