Default "in such a case" vs "in such case"

Is there difference in meaning? Is there a rule that states when an article should be used?

No difference in meaning. I would prefer 'in such a case', but 'in such case' also seems to have gained some popularity, perhaps because of its similarity to the common 'in any case'.
