description Now-a-days, the number of Caesarean section (c-section) has increased, also the complications of c-section has increased. Obstetricians often encounter uterine scar dehiscence during delivery by c-section. However, it is rare to find a uterine scar dehiscence which is extending over one-third of the anterior uterine wall and it is yet to build the best surgical approach for repairing this rare complication of c-section or a torn anterior wall during delivery. Herein, a 23-year-old female who is Rhesus factor (Rh) negative G2P1L1 with seven months of amenorrhea came with chief complaints of pain in the abdomen since morning. On ultrasonography, severe oligohydramnios was diagnosed as Amniotic Fluid Index (AFI) was >5 cm. Hence, the patient was taken for emergency Lower Segment Caesarean Section (LSCS), Lower Uterine Section (LUS) was papery thin, uterovaginal fold of peritoneum was opened and the bladder was pushed down. One-third of the anterior uterine wall was involved. LUS was sutured using vicryl No. 1 and complete haemostasis was achieved. As uterine scar dehiscence is not preventable, efforts should be made to manage it efficiently and repair the myometrium safely.
