Maternal death due to non-traumatic spontaneous complete rupture of scarred uterus– a rare case report
Journal Title: MedPulse -International Medical Journal - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 6
Abstract
Rupture of gravid uterus is a surgical emergency. Predisposing factors include a scarred uterus or multiparity. It is the most serious obstetric complication. If untreated its mortality approaches 100% for the mother and undelivered fetus. We present a rare case of maternal death due to non-traumatic spontaneous complete rupture of scarred uterus with previously successful vaginal birth after Caesarean (VABC) delivery. Maternal and perinatal outcomes are optimized by awareness of risk factors, recognition of clinical signs and symptoms, and prompt surgical intervention
