Uterine rupture in a setting of past tubal isthmus laparoscopic resection with successful maternal outcome and live birth: A case report

Uterine rupture is a catastrophic event that causes significant maternal and foetal morbidity and mortality (Silver 2012). In women, uterine rupture usually results in severe postpartum haemorrhage, which requires blood transfusion and hysterectomy (Ronel et al. 2012). Neonates born out of uterine rupture have low Apgar scores and a higher rate of perinatal mortality (Yazawa et al. 2011). Previous caesarean delivery (CD) and myomectomy are the most common factors that may result in uterine rupture (Deka et al. 2011; Badial et al. 2012). Although there are many reports of uterine rupture following laparoscopic cornual resection, uterine rupture due to laparoscopic surgery in the tubal isthmus has been rarely reported (Liao and Ding 2009). Here, we report a case of uterine rupture at 36 weeks of gestation and live birth in such a setting.
