Spontaneous uterine rupture with amniotic sac protrusion during the third trimester of a unicornuate uterus pregnancy: A rate case report.

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.

Spontaneous second trimester rupture of a previous caesarean section scar: A case report.

Spontaneous uterine rupture before the onset of labour is rare in pregnancy especially before the third trimester. It is life threatening with devastating consequences to the mother and fetus. We report a case of spontaneous second trimester uterine rupture in a multipara with a previous uterine scar with the aim of creating awareness and sharing the challenges in diagnosis and management of this unusual complication of pregnancy. A 34-year-old woman with two previous deliveries presented at 16 weeks gestation with abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding of one day duration. At presentation, she was pale and in shock. There was generalized abdominal tenderness with guarding and rebound tenderness. At laparotomy, there was uterine rupture involving the lower segment with right lateral upward extension which was repaired. She remained stable at the follow up visit. In conclusion, Spontaneous uterine rupture of a previous caesarean section scar in the second trimester is rare. The diagnosis should be considered in a woman with previous caesarean section who experience an acute abdomen in the second trimester of pregnancy.

La rupture utérine spontanée avant le début du travail est rare pendant la grossesse, surtout avant le troisième trimestre. Elle met la vie en danger et entraîne des conséquences dévastatrices pour la mère et le fœtus. Nous rapportons un cas de rupture utérine spontanée au deuxième trimestre chez une multipare présentant une cicatrice utérine antérieure dans le but de sensibiliser et de partager les défis du diagnostic et de la prise en charge de cette complication inhabituelle de la grossesse. Une femme de 34 ans ayant déjà accouché deux fois s'est présentée à 16 semaines de gestation avec des douleurs abdominales et des saignements vaginaux d'une durée d'un jour. Lors de la présentation, elle était pâle et sous le choc. Il y avait une sensibilité abdominale généralisée avec une sensibilité de garde et de rebond. Lors de la laparotomie, il y a eu une rupture utérine impliquant le segment inférieur avec extension latérale droite vers le haut qui a été réparée. Elle est restée stable lors de la visite de suivi. En conclusion, la rupture utérine spontanée d'une cicatrice de césarienne antérieure au deuxième trimestre est rare. Le diagnostic doit être envisagé chez une femme ayant déjà subi une césarienne et présentant un abdomen aigu au cours du deuxième trimestre de la grossesse.

Uterine rupture in patients with a history of hysteroscopy procedures: Case series and review of literature.

RATIONALE: Uterine rupture during pregnancy poses significant risks to both the fetus and the mother, resulting in high mortality and morbidity rates. While awareness of uterine rupture prevention after a cesarean section has increased, insufficient attention has been given to cases caused by pregnancy following hysteroscopy surgery. PATIENT CONCERNS: We report 2 cases here, both of whom had a history of hysteroscopy surgery and presented with severe abdominal pain during pregnancy. DIAGNOSES: Both patients had small uterine ruptures, with no significant abnormalities detected on ultrasonography. The diagnosis was confirmed by a CT scan, which showed hemoperitoneum. INTERVENTIONS: We performed emergency surgeries for the 2 cases. OUTCOMES: We repaired the uterus in 2 patients during the operation. Both patients recovered well. The children survived. No abnormalities were detected during their follow-up visits. LESSONS: Attention should be paid to the cases of pregnancy after hysteroscopy.

Silent uterine rupture in the term pregnancy: Three case reports.

RATIONALE: Uterine rupture is extremely hazardous to both mothers and infants. Diagnosing silent uterine rupture in pregnant women without uterine contractions is challenging due to the presence of nonspecific symptoms, signs, and laboratory indicators. Therefore, it is crucial to identify the elevated risks associated with silent uterine rupture. PATIENT CONCERNS: on admission, case 1 was at 37 gestational weeks, having undergo laparoscopic transabdominal cerclage 8 months prior to the in vitro fertilization embryo transfer procedure, case 2 was at 38 4/7 gestational weeks with a history of 5 previous artificial abortion and 2 previous vaginal deliveries, case 3 was at 37 6/7 gestational weeks with a history of laparoscopic myomectomy. DIAGNOSES: The diagnosis of silent uterine rupture was based on clinical findings from cesarean delivery or laparoscopic exploration. INTERVENTIONS: Case 1 underwent emergent cesarean delivery, revealing a 0.25 cm × 0.25 cm narrow concave area above the Ring Ties with active and bright amniotic fluid flowing from the tear. Case 2 underwent vaginal delivery, and on the 12th postpartum day, ultrasound imaging and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a 5.8 cm × 3.3 cm × 2.3 cm lesion on the lower left posterior wall of the uterus, and 15th postpartum day, laparoscopic exploration confirmed the presence of an old rupture of uterus. Case 3 underwent elective cesarean delivery, revealing a 3.0 cm × 2.0 cm uterine rupture without active bleeding at the bottom of the uterus. OUTCOMES: The volumes of antenatal bleeding for the 3 patients were approximately 500 mL, 320 mL, and 400 mL, respectively. After silent uterine ruptures were detected, the uterine tear was routinely repaired. No maternal or neonatal complications were reported. LESSONS: Obstetricians should give particular consideration to the risk factors for silent uterine rupture, including a history of uterine surgery, such as laparoscopic transabdominal cerclage, laparoscopic myomectomy, and induced abortion.

Uterine rupture in the first trimester: a case report and review of the literature.

BACKGROUND: Uterine rupture is a rare complication that can occur in the first trimester of pregnancy. It can lead to serious maternal morbidity or mortality, which is mostly due to catastrophic bleeding. First trimester uterine rupture is rare; hence, diagnosis can be challenging as it may be confused with other causes of early pregnancy bleeding such as an ectopic pregnancy. We present a case of first trimester scar dehiscence and conduct a literature review of this rare condition. CASE PRESENTATION: A 39-year-old African patient with four previous hysterotomy scars presented with severe lower abdominal pain at 11 weeks of gestation. She had two previous histories of third trimester uterine rupture in previous pregnancies with subsequent hysterotomies and repair. She underwent a diagnostic laparoscopy that confirmed the diagnosis of a 10 cm anterior wall uterine rupture. A laparotomy and repair of the rupture was subsequently done. CONCLUSION: In conclusion, the case presented adds to the body of evidence of uterine scar dehiscence in the first trimester. The risk factors, clinical presentation, diagnostic imaging, and management outlined may help in early identification and management of this rare but life threatening condition.

Cornual pregnancy rupture and massive hemorrhage: A case report.

BACKGROUND: Corneal pregnancy is rare and difficult to detect in the early stages. Due to the abundant blood supply in this area, a rupture can result in massive internal bleeding, shock, and even death. Therefore, immediate surgery is necessary, and patients must replenish their blood volume as soon as possible to ensure blood supply to important organs. For those whose blood pressure cannot immediately rise, surgery should be performed while resisting shock to buy time. CASE SUMMARY: We present the case of a 34-year-old Chinese woman at 19 weeks of gestation who had a corneal pregnancy. No abnormalities were detected in the examinations in the first trimester. This patient was 19 weeks pregnant and sought medical advice due to sudden lower abdominal pain, syncope, and hemorrhagic shock. After rescue and treatment, she recovered and was discharged from the hospital, afterwards, the patient gave birth to a child 7 years later. CONCLUSION: The early diagnosis of cornual pregnancy is mainly based on ultrasound. However, there is a high incidence of missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis of this disease. Patients may face serious and life-threatening conditions in case of the rupture of cornual pregnancy. This disease can be mainly treated by surgery.

Uterine rupture of an unscarred gravid uterus at term attributed to adenomyosis.

Uterine rupture is a rare obstetric emergency that is typically associated with the presence of scar tissue such as in the case of previous caesarean section. In this case report, a primigravid patient presented to the hospital in cardiac arrest with massive haemoperitoneum secondary to a posterior uterine rupture. The histological specimen was found to have diffuse adenomyosis at the site of rupture. On review of the literature, there is insufficient evidence to suggest we as clinicians should alter the antenatal care for patients with known adenomyosis; however, this case highlights how we should have a high index of suspicion for those presenting with signs and symptoms of uterine rupture with known adenomyosis in the absence of other risk factors.

Uterine rupture during vaginal birth misinterpreted as acute appendicitis postpartum.

This case report describes a uterine rupture initially misinterpreted as acute appendicitis. Uterine rupture is a rare but serious obstetric complication, whereas acute appendicitis is one of the most common causes of abdominal pain. The patient gave vaginal birth after previously having had a caesarean delivery. The following days she experienced persistent abdominal pain which was interpreted as acute appendicitis. Diagnostic laparoscopy found a normal appendix but a complete uterine rupture. The lesson to be learned from this case report is not to let the most common diagnoses overshadow the rare ones.

Unscarred uterine rupture with catastrophic hemorrhage immediately after vaginal delivery: diagnosis and management of six consecutive cases.

BACKGROUND: To describe and explore the risk factors, clinical presentations, timely diagnostic approaches, and management in patients experiencing unscarred uterine rupture with catastrophic hemorrhage. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed clinical and imaging data from women who encountered postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) and were diagnosed with unscarred uterine rupture within a three-year timeframe (2018-2020). The data were extracted from medical records obtained from a multi-hospital 24-hour emergency PPH transfer system. RESULTS: Six patients were identified as having unscarred uterine rupture after vaginal delivery. All six women were para 2, with four of them undergoing vacuum-assisted delivery. One patient experienced out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), while five patients presented with hypovolemic shock. Abdominopelvic ultrasound revealed a boggy lower uterine segment. Initially, five patients underwent transarterial embolization (TAE) of the internal iliac arteries in an attempt to achieve hemostasis, but this approach proved unsuccessful. Abdominopelvic computed tomography (CT) confirmed the diagnosis of ruptured uterus by demonstrating disrupted myometrium and hemoperitoneum. Immediate exploratory laparotomy followed by life-saving hysterectomy was performed in all cases. The median estimated total blood loss was 2725 mL ± 900 mL (ranging from 1600 mL to 7100 mL). Lower segment lacerations were observed in all patients, with more extensive uterine damage noted in those who underwent vacuum extraction. The length of hospital stay varied between 9 and 38 days. CONCLUSION: Instrument-assisted obstetric delivery is a possible contributing factor to unscarred uterine rupture in our study. In specific cases, the use of abdominopelvic CT prior to initiating transarterial embolization (TAE) offers valuable information to complement ultrasound findings. This comprehensive approach helps in accurately identifying the underlying cause of intractable postpartum hemorrhage (PPH). Immediate conversion to laparotomy is essential to explore the intra-abdominal factors causing PPH that cannot be controlled by TAE. The rational etiologies of uterine rupture must be clarified while generating practical guideline in the future.

Conservative management of complete fetal expulsion into the abdominal cavity after silent uterine rupture - case report.

BACKGROUND: Clinically silent uterine rupture with complete fetal expulsion into the abdominal cavity is an extremely rare complication. Diagnosis can be difficult and the risk to the mother and fetus is high. Conservative management has been described only in a few cases of partial expulsion of the fetus so far. CASE PRESENTATION: We present a case of 43-year-old tercigravida with a history of previous laparotomic myomectomy and subsequent cesarean section. The subsequent pregnancy was complicated by uterine wall loosening and rupture at the site of the previous uterine scar after myomectomy and complete fetal expulsion into the abdominal cavity. The diagnosis was made at 24 + 6 weeks of gestation. Considering the absence of clinical symptomatology and the good condition of the fetus, a conservative approach was chosen with intensive monitoring of the maternal and fetal conditions. The pregnancy ended by elective cesarean section and hysterectomy at 28 + 0 weeks of gestation. The postpartum course was uneventful and the newborn was discharged to home care 63 days after delivery. CONCLUSIONS: Fetal expulsion into the abdominal cavity after silent uterine rupture of the scarred uterus may be accompanied by minimal symptomatology making early diagnosis difficult. This rare complication must be considered in the differential diagnosis in women after major uterine surgery. In selected cases and under conditions of intensive maternal and fetal monitoring, conservative management may be chosen to reduce the risks associated with prematurity.

Spontaneous rupture of an unscarred uterus during pregnancy: A rare but life-threatening emergency: Case series.

RATIONALE: In most cases, uterine rupture occurs during the third trimester of pregnancy or during labor. Even fewer reports have been published about the occurrence of this condition without a gynecologic history of any surgical procedure. Due to their scarcity and variable clinical presentation, early diagnosis of uterine rupture may be difficult, and if the diagnosis is not timely, the condition may be life-threatening. PATIENT CONCERNS: Herein, 3 cases of uterine rupture from a single institution are described. Three patients are at different gestational weeks and all have no history of uterine surgery. They came to the hospital due to acute abdominal pain, which is characterized by severe and persistent pain in the abdomen, with no apparent vaginal bleeding. DIAGNOSES: All 3 patients were diagnosed with uterine rupture during the operation. INTERVENTIONS: One patient underwent uterine repair surgery; while the other 2 underwent subtotal hysterectomy due to persistent bleeding and pathological examination after surgery confirmed placenta implantation. OUTCOMES: The patients recovered well after the operation, and no discomfort occurred in the follow-up. LESSONS: Acute abdominal pain during pregnancy can pose both diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. It is important to consider the possibility of uterine rupture, even in cases where there is no history of prior uterine surgery. The key to the treatment of uterine rupture is to shorten the diagnosis time as much as possible, this potential complication should be carefully monitored for and promptly addressed to ensure the best possible outcomes for both the mother and the developing fetus.

[Herniated amniotic sac through uterine dehiscence at the 30th gestational week after prior laparoscopic salpingectomy]. / Elozetes laparoszkópos salpingectomiát követo hegszétválás és buroksérv a várandósság 30. hetében.

Uterine rupture is a rare complication during pregnancy which may even lead to the death of the mother and the fetus. In this report, the management of a herniated amniotic sac associated with uterine dehiscence is presented. A 25-year-old primigravida at 30 weeks with a history of a previous unilateral salpingectomy was transferred to our hospital with the potential diagnosis of a herniated amniotic sac, which was discovered during a routine ultrasound scan. The patient had no prior complaints or any other signs that would have indicated a serious condition during her pregnancy. She underwent an emergency cesarean section and a two-layer closure of the lesion. An adequate suture during laparoscopic salpingectomy provides prevention of uterine rupture during subsequent pregnancies. A medical history with a previous laparoscopic dehiscence should necessitate a more frequent sonographic observation during pregnancy. Orv Hetil. 2023; 164(25): 988-992.

Predicting Uterine Rupture Risk Using Lower Uterine Segment Measurement During Pregnancy With Cesarean History: How Reliable Is It? A Review.

Importance: Uterine rupture during labor is a calamitous event that can result in maternal/neonatal morbidity/mortality. Lower uterine segment (LUS) thickness measurement is a proposed method to determine the risk factor of uterine rupture in women undergoing trial of labor after cesarean. Does this measurement predict uterine rupture risk? Objectives: This review examines current evidence to determine if a thin LUS ultrasound diagnosis during pregnancy with prior cesarean delivery(s) can reliably predict uterine rupture risk while attempting vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC). Evidence Acquisition: Electronic databases (PubMed and CINAHL) were searched with one limitation of abstracts in English. Search terms used were "lower uterine segment" AND "risk(s)" AND "rupture" OR "dehiscence. Results: After reviewing 164 identified articles, 15 were used in this review. Of the studies including LUS thickness measurement, notable differences were found: gestational age at time of measurement, full thickness measurement versus myometrial thickness, number of sonographers involved, ultrasound technique (transabdominal vs transvaginal), and blinding. Other factors influencing LUS thickness include fetal weight, amniotic fluid volume, and gestational age. The most recent systematic review and meta-analysis suggests that an LUS > 3.65 mm should be safe for a VBAC, 2-3.65 mm is probably safe, and <2 mm identifies a patient at higher risk for uterine rupture/dehiscence. Conclusions: Study heterogeneity, absence of an agreed upon thickness threshold, poor correlation between ultrasound and MRI measurements, or physical cesarean measurements currently make VBAC uterine rupture risk prediction uncertain. Relevance: Our aim is to analyze existing literature to determine if evidence supports LUS measurement in women undergoing VBAC after cesarean to determine risk of uterine rupture.

[Uterine rupture during medical termination of pregnancy or intrauterine death: A risk management study]. / Rupture utérine sur interruption médicale de grossesse ou mort fœtale in utero : une étude de gestion du risque.

OBJECTIVE: To describe and analyze a series of uterine ruptures (UR) that occurred in the context of medical termination of pregnancy (MTP) or intrauterine death (IUD) from a risk management perspective. METHODS: French retrospective descriptive observational study of all cases of UR occurring during induction for IUD or MTP, reported between 2011 and 2021 by Gynerisq. Cases were recorded on a basis of voluntary reports using targeted questionnaires. RESULTS: Between November 27, 2011, and August 22, 2021, 12 cases of UR occurring during an induction for IUD or MTP were recorded. 50 % of the patients had never given birth by cesarean section. The term of delivery varied from 17+3 days to 41+2 days. The clinical signs found were pain (n=6), ascending fetal presentation (n=5) and bleeding (n=4). All patients were managed by laparotomy, 5 were transfused. One vascular ligation and one hysterectomy were required. CONCLUSION: Knowledge of surgical history is involved in the prevention of UR. The signs of detection are pain, ascending presentation and bleeding. The speed of management and good teamwork allow a reduction of maternal complications. The findings of the morbidity and mortality reviews show that prevention and mitigation barriers can be established.

Uterine rupture in intramural ectopic pregnancy: A case report.

Intramural pregnancy is a rare form of ectopic pregnancy. It is defined by a gestation within the uterine wall, completely surrounded by myometrium and separated from the uterine cavity and the fallopian tube. We report a rare case of intramural ectopic pregnancy. If a patient has a history of intrauterine surgery or myomectomy, the possibility of intramural pregnancy, although rare, should not be ruled out.

The Spontaneous Uterine Rupture in Labor: When to Expect the Unexpected.

Uterine rupture is a potentially life-threatening complication that is typically seen in pregnant females who have undergone prior uterine surgeries such as cesarean sections. This usually occurs when the uterine myometrium is weakened and thus is more prone to stress during labor. In an unscarred uterus, the incidence of uterine rupture is lower. Risk factors in the unscarred uterus include trauma, obstructed labor, high parity, placental abnormalities, operative deliveries, and imprudent use of uterotonic medications. This case report describes a situation in which uterine rupture occurred in the absence of the common risk factors. With prompt recognition of clinical signs, quick assembly of a team, and emergent interventions, this patient and her infant survived. The goal of this report is to educate clinicians on the occurrence of uterine rupture in an unscarred uterus and how to recognize and manage this complication.

[Traumatic uterine rupture in gemelli pregnant woman causing emergency hysterectomy].

This is a case report of a 30-year-old gemelli pregnant woman in gestation week 15 and 6 days, who was admitted to a local hospital after being involved in a high impact motor vehicle accident. Traumatic uterine rupture was suspected and the patient was immediately operated with exploratory laparotomy. Emergency hysterectomy was performed, hence the pregnancy was terminated. This case is a rare obstetric trauma situation, and prompt diagnosis is life-saving.

Surgical uterus-preserving therapy after uterine rupture and haemorrhage due to placenta percreta in the first trimester following embolisation of the uterine arteries and B-Lynch suture in a previous pregnancy.

A woman in her early 30s in the 11 2/7 week of pregnancy was admitted with severe abdominal pain and emesis. One year prior, the patient had undergone hysteroscopic adhesiolysis to treat Asherman syndrome resulting from a prior pregnancy. Examination of the patient revealed a haemoperitoneum and an intact intrauterine pregnancy. Laparoscopic adhesiolysis and haemostasis was performed and the patient was transferred to the intensive care unit. Subsequent examination due to persistent abdominal pain revealed an occult iatrogenic perforation of the uterus and placenta percreta with spontaneous uterine rupture. Although treatment for placenta percreta has generally been hysterectomy, in this case, the rupture and perforation sites were resected, representing successful fertility preserving management for this oft-overlooked pregnancy complication.

[Establish and application of scoring scale for trial of labor after cesarean section].

Objective: To establish a scoring scale for trial of labor after cesarean section (TOLAC), to explore the evaluation ability of this scoring scale for vaginal delivery after cesarean section (VBAC), and to improve the success rate of TOLAC. Methods: The delivery information of 661 TOLAC pregnant women admitted to Zhengzhou Central Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from 2014 to 2017 was retrospectively analyzed, and the TOLAC scoring scale was established by referring to relevant literatures. A prospective cohort study of pregnant women with TOLAC from January 2018 to December 2019 in Zhengzhou Central Hospital was conducted, including 440 pregnant women who were excluded from contraindications in trial labor. According to TOLAC scoring scale, pregnant women were divided into 3 groups, 0-6 group (94 cases), 7-9 group (234 cases) and 10-15 group (112 cases). The success rate of trial labor, failure reasons and incidence of maternal and neonatal complications were compared among the three groups. Results: (1) The overall success rate of TOLAC in 440 pregnant women was 75.0% (330/440). The success rates of 0-6, 7-9 and 10-15 groups were 53.2% (50/94), 76.9% (180/234) and 89.3% (100/112), respectively. The success rate of 10-15 group were significantly higher than those of 0-6 and 7-9 groups (all P<0.05). (2) Among the causes of trial labor failure, there were statistically significant differences between the three groups in terms of threatened uterine rupture and maternal abandonment (all P<0.05). Pairings showed that the incidences of threatened uterine rupture and maternal abandonment in 0-6 group was lower than those in 7-9 and 10-15 groups, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). (3) Maternal and neonatal complications mainly included postpartum hemorrhage and neonatal asphyxia, but there were no significant difference in the incidence of TOLAC success or failure among the three groups (all P>0.05). There was no uterine rupture in all groups. (4) The main factors affecting TOLAC score of pregnant women in the three groups included natural labor, estimated weight of the fetus at this time, Bishop score of the cervix at admission and gestational age, and the scores of the above indexes in 10-15 group were significantly higher than those in 0-6 group and 7-9 group (all P<0.05). Conclusions: TOLAC scoring scale has more accurate evaluation ability for VBAC, which could improve the success rate of TOLAC and maternal and child safety. The score of 0-6 is not recommended for vaginal trial labor, the score of 7-9 is recommended for vaginal trial labor, and the score of 10-15 is strongly recommended for vaginal trial labor.

Clinical Features, Management and Maternal-Infant Prognosis in Patients with Complete Uterine Rupture in the Second and Third Trimester of Pregnancy.

Objectives: Our study aimed to investigate the clinical features, management, and maternal-infant prognosis in patients with complete uterine rupture in the second and third trimester of pregnancy. Methods: A total of 15 patients with complete uterine rupture in their second and third trimester of pregnancy who were admitted to our hospital between January 2012 and December 2020 were included in our study. The patients enrolled were divided into the scar group (11 patients) and the non-scar group (4 patients) according to the existence or absence of a uterine scar. The general data, clinical characteristics and follow-up results in the 2 groups were compared. Results: There was no significant difference in age, pregnancy duration or delivery cycle between the 2 groups (P > .05). The incidence of original scar rupture in the scar group was significantly higher than in the non-scar group (P > .05). No significant difference was found in clinical characteristics between the scar and the non-scar groups (P > .05). The most common clinical features included abdominal pain, inability to lie flat, hemorrhagic shock, prenatal vaginal bleeding and uterine rupture, mostly occurring in the lower segments of the uterus and cervix. A total of 3 patients were misdiagnosed as having surgical disease. After completing relevant examinations, the uterine rupture was repaired surgically; the patients were discharged after blood transfusion, and their condition resolved. In all, 3 patients in the non-scar group and 1 patient in the scar group were transferred to the intensive care unit (ICU). All 15 patients were discharged after treatment. Follow-up was completed by all patients for 12 to 36 months, with an average follow-up time of 23.09 ± 2.19 months. Of the 15 patients, 2 underwent induced abortion after 24 months due to unplanned pregnancy. A 5-minute Apgar score of ≤7 in the scar group was higher than that in the non-scar group, but the difference was not statistically significant (P > .05). Perinatal mortality in the 15 patients was 40.00% (6/15). Conclusion: The most common clinical features in patients with complete uterine rupture in the second and third trimester of pregnancy included abdominal pain, inability to lie flat, hemorrhagic shock, prenatal vaginal bleeding and uterine rupture, mostly occurring in the lower segments of the uterus and cervix. In addition, a remarkably worse maternal-infant prognosis was seen in patients with complete uterine rupture in the second and third trimester of scarless pregnancy compared with patients with complete uterine rupture in the second and third trimester of scarred pregnancy.
