We report on the key sonographic feature of uterine cavernous haemangiomas in pregnancy, a rare condition with only 14 cases reported in the literature including this case. A key feature of our case is post‐partum follow‐up ultrasound investigation up to 6 months. This condition is associated with morbidity and mortality, correct identification can prevent catastrophic outcomes.
