RESUMEN
Uterine necrosis is a very rare condition and most of the reported cases occurred after pelvic arterial embolization for post-partum haemorrhage, embolization of fibroid uterus or application of B-Lynch sutures. A case of delayed myometrial necrosis is reported in post-cesarean patient where no embolization or uterine compression sutures have been applied. Patient presented with foul smelling discharge from the gaped abdominal wound following caesarean section. Abdomen was closed after exploration and lavage. Patient did not have complete healing and area of unhealed wound remained through which subinvoluted uterus was peeping out. Patient was taken for resuturing again but the uterus was found to be completely necrotic and hysterectomy was performed. Patient responded to treatment.
