  • Title: Spontaneous rupture of unscarred gravid uterus.
    Author: Gurudut KS, Gouda HS, Aramani SC, Patil RH.
    Journal: J Forensic Sci; 2011 Jan; 56 Suppl 1():S263-5. PubMed ID: 21114667.
    Abstract:
    Rupture of gravid uterus during pregnancy is a rare entity. Overall incidence of rupture of uterus during pregnancy is 0.07%. The maternal and fetal prognoses are bad especially when the rupture occurs in an unscarred uterus. Fortunately, the sole major risk factor of spontaneous rupture of unscarred uterus is preventable, which is "multiparity." In this article, we report the death of a pregnant woman and her unborn child because of spontaneous rupture of unscarred uterus.
