Mary Ezra, a 28-year-old pregnant woman, was diagnosed with obstructed labour associated with intrauterine fetal death and maternal distress. Her prognosis is guarded but may be favourable with prompt obstetric intervention and supportive care. Continued obstructed labour would likely have resulted in worsening haemorrhage leading to hypovolaemic shock, uterine rupture with massive intra-abdominal bleeding, severe sepsis from prolonged retention of the demised fetus, disseminated intravascular coagulation, acute kidney injury, and multi-organ failure. Prolonged pressure from the obstructed fetal head could also have caused obstetric fistula with permanent disability. Delayed or absent intervention would have placed her at very high risk of maternal death.
