Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Uterine rupture is one of the most feared obstetric complications, carrying an increased risk of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. Here, we present a case of spontaneous uterine rupture during the first half of pregnancy. The patient did not report any recent trauma, however she had a history of laparoscopic myomectomy conducted three years earlier. The uterine rupture was 6-7 cm in length, located at the fundal level and was thought to originate from the previous myomectomy scar. In this report, we discuss the importance of choosing the right surgical technique and suturing method in patients undergoing myomectomy who desire to conceive in the future, and how obscure the findings of uterine rupture during pregnancy can be. |
