Successful conservative management of a spontaneous hemorrhagic uterine rupture at 18 weeks of gestation - 20/05/22
Abstract |
Prelabor uterine rupture is a very rare complication of pregnancy that in most cases occurs when there is a history of uterine surgery. Maternal and neonatal morbidity is significant. Most often, the pregnancy must be terminated to rescue both the mother and the newborn, if possible. We report the case of a patient who had a pre-labor uterine rupture at 18 weeks of gestation (WG) complicated by massive hemoperitoneum. Emergency surgery with conservative management allowed the pregnancy to continue until 32+3 WG. In very rare situations of uterine rupture at a very early term, conservative management appears to be an acceptable solution to allow the pregnancy to continue until a sufficient gestational age to limit complications related to prematurity.
