Retained placenta- Ultrasound video

  
This ultrasound video clip shows a echogenic, heterogenous endometrial mass in the uterus after delivery a few days ago. The patient had a history of inability to deliver the placenta. In view of such a history, and the large size of the mass in the endometrial cavity, this is a clear evidence of retained placenta.
