Abstract

Uterine rupture is the important cause of life threatening to mother and fetus, in spite of progressed obstetrics. We must observe the patient carefully before labor, during labor and after delivery for the higher prediction of uterine rupture. We experienced a case of incomplete uterine rupture at 40 weeks of gestation weeks in a 37-year-old multigravida tried vaginal birth after cesarean delivery. So we present it with brief review of literatures.
