Abstract

Uterine rupture in pregnancy is a rare and often catastrophic complication with a high incidence of fetal and maternal morbidity. Uterine dehiscence and rupture uterus are more commonly seen in patients with scarred uterus but it is of a rare occurrence in patients with unscarred uterus. We are presenting mid trimester rupture of an unscarred uterus.
