  • Title: [A case of spontaneous rupture of the uterus (author's transl)].
    Author: Mühlenstedt D, Hanker J.
    Journal: Geburtshilfe Frauenheilkd; 1978 Jun; 38(6):478-80. PubMed ID: 669238.
    Abstract:
    A 22 year old primigravida at 40+ weeks gestation had an i.v. induction of labour with 5-10 mU/min oxytocin for 3 h which resulted in fetal distress without bleeding at 5 cm dilatation at station -3, vertex transverse. At emergency Caesarean section an occult rupture of the uterus was found. Maternal height 168 cm, weight 71.0 kg. Fetal length 53 cm, weight 4080 g. The problems of spontaneous rupture of the uterus without detectable prior damage of the uterine wall are discussed.
