Uterine Rupture
Uterine rupture is when the muscular wall of the uterus tears during childbirth and pregnancy. Symptoms while classically including increased pain, vaginal bleeding, or a change in contractions aren't always present. Disability of the mother or baby may result. During labor, pressure builds because the baby moves through the mother's passage. This pressure can reason the mother's uterus to tear. Often, it tears along the location of a previous
caesarean delivery scar. When a
uterine rupture occurs, the uterus's contents including the baby may spill into the mother's abdomen. Clinical features of
uterine rupture may include abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding, maternal shock or hemorrhage. From our case, we learned that
uterine rupture may occur with none precipitating signs or symptoms. If the fetus has been expelled from the uterus and is located within the peritoneal cavity,
morbidity and mortality increase significantly. Diagnosis of
uterine rupture is confirmed by
laparotomy. Treatment of
uterine rupture is immediate laparotomy with
caesarean delivery and, if necessary, hysterectomy. With access to a rapid cesarean, fetal death from a
uterine rupture is a particularly rare event. Women who receive good prenatal care, whose care providers are trained and experienced with VBAC, and who
labor during a facility that's equipped to supply immediate medical aid usually have good outcomes.
