Abstract
|
|
|
Rupture of the uterus constitues one-of the most serious complication of the. pregnancy. It.is not frequent disease, but it caused 5% of all maternal death.
Although the overall incidence has remained ´fairly constant recently, there has been a relative change in the number of ruptures attributed to theparticular cause: Rupture of the uterus due to obstetrical trauma has shown a marked decrease; this is the result of careful management. The resultant increase in the incidence of cesarean section, however, has brought about a relative increase in incomplete (silent dehiscence) uterine ruptures.
We experienced 3 cases of uterine rupture recently: 1st case was traumatic rupture due to careless use of oxytocin by midwife. 2nd case was spontaneous. rupture -of cesarean scar during labor. 3-rd case was traumatic rupture of previous cesarean scar by the administration of oxytocin at local clinic.
