  • Title: [Uterine rupture due to unrecognized uterine scarring].
    Author: Meicler P, Darai E, Pinet C, Raoust I, Colau JC.
    Journal: Rev Fr Gynecol Obstet; 1991 Oct; 86(10):609-11. PubMed ID: 1763272.
    Abstract:
    Uterine rupture affecting the pregnant uterus has become rare. It occurs essentially in the presence of scarring. The cases reported here described rupture following evacuation curettage which had caused an unrecognized uterine perforation. While such perforations often have no serious consequences, this explaining the usual abstention from treatment, it is nevertheless important that acute complications (intestinal or vascular trauma) or long term (uterine rupture of pregnant uterus) should not pass unrecognized.
