RESUMEN
Amniocele is a rare condition involving herniation of the amniotic sac through a uterine breach. Our case is of a 29-year-old pregnant woman at 31 weeks of pregnancy who presented to the maternity triage of the Mirebalais Teaching Hospital for abdominal pain and the passage of blood through the vagina. After an ultrasonographic evaluation, the diagnosis of amniocele was made. In practice, for a third-trimester, nonlaboring pregnant woman with this symptomatology, the most common diagnoses that come to mind are placenta previa and placental abruption. This case highlights that a diagnosis of silent uterine rupture should also be kept in mind knowing that a uterine rupture is a life-threatening event for both the mother and the fetus, therefore, early diagnosis is very important to improve the maternal-fetal prognosis.
