ABSTRACT
RATIONALE Uterine rupture is an obstetrical emergency associated with severe maternal and fetal mortality. It is rare in the unscarred uterus of a primipara. PATIENT CONCERNS A 25-year-old woman in her 38th week of gestation presented with slight abdominal pain of sudden onset 10 hours before. An emergency cesarean section was done. After surgery, the patient and the infant survived. DIAGNOSES With slight abdominal pain of clinical signs, ultrasound examination showed that the amniotic sac was found in the peritoneal cavity with a rupture of the uterine fundus. INTERVENTIONS:
Uterine repair and right salpingectomy.OUTCOMES:
After surgery, the patient and the infant survived. The newborn weighed 2600 g and had an Apgar score of 10 points per minute. Forty-two days after delivery, the uterus recovered well. LESSONS Spontaneous uterine rupture should be considered in patients even without acute pain, regardless of gestational age, and pregnancy with abdominal cystic mass should consider the possibility of uterine rupture.
