Anaesthetic Management for Retained Placenta in a Patient with Hypovolumic Shock

A case of retained placenta following vaginal delivery as VBAC with history of prior lower segment cesarean section was shifted to the operation theatre in shock with severe pallor, hypotension and bleeding per vagina for removal of placenta. Following the efforts of placental removal to be in vain, the patient was planned for emergency on-table hysterectomy to control hemorrhage under general anaesthesia.
