    OBJECTIVE: Analysis of two cases uterine rupture following caesarian section. SUBJECT: Two case studies. SETTING: Gynecological obstetrics clinic, First Medical Faculty and Faculty Hospital Bulovka, Prague. SUBJECT AND METHODS: The authors in their article describe two cases of rupture of the uterus in pregnancy prior to delivery. In both cases there was a history of cervicocorporal caesarian section. CONCLUSION: In the first case the patient was admitted from her home with bleeding, and signed a nonconsent form.

Both women underwent hysterectomy, paradoxically, in the first case the child was saved and discharged home in good health.
