| Summary: | Uterine rupture during pregnancy is a critical obstetric complication associated
with maternal and fetal mortality and morbidity. The risk is increased in patients with a history of
previous uterine surgery including cesarean section, myomectomy, salpingectomy, as well as uterine
and placental anomalies and polyhydramnios. It can also occur spontaneously. We present a case of
uterine rupture in the early third trimester in a woman who had undergone previous laparoscopic removal
of the left fallopian tube due to sactosalpinx and laparotomic removal of left uterine horn due
to ectopic pregnancy. |
