METHODS
We conducted a nested, case-control study in a cohort of all women undergoing a trial of labor after cesarean over a 12-year period in a
Because of the increasing number of cicatricial uteruses, uterine ruptures are likely to become more frequent. However, few cases discovered in the postpartum period are described in literature. Our case report describes a uterine rupture, which occurred during a quick vaginal delivery, in a patient
The rate of vaginal birth among women with a previous cesarean increased from 18.9% in 1989 to 28.3% in 1996. By 1998, the rate had decreased to 26.3% and preliminary data from 1999 suggest that the rate for that year would be even lower (23.4%). It is not known whether that decrease represents a

OBJECTIVE
To assess the risk of uterine rupture in case of uterine scar in specific situations. To investigate whether ultrasonographic measurement of the lower uterine segment is predictive of the risk of uterine rupture.
METHODS
French and English publications were identified through PubMed and
A case of rupture of the uterus during pregnancy with concomitant injury of the sigmoid is reported. This complication followed a multiple myomectomy performed during a previous pregnancy. The initial symptom was a septic fever. However two clinical signs proved pathognomonic for the diagnosis: the
BACKGROUND
The change in obstetrical practices over the last decade in favor of trials of labor in patients with uterine scars has resulted in increased incidences of uterine ruptures. Although neither repeat cesarean delivery nor a trial of labor is risk free, evidence from a large multicenter
From June 1978 to June 1990, there were 41,989 deliveries, 13,396 cesarean sections and 15 emergency obstetric hysterectomies at Taipei Chang Gung Memorial Hospital. The incidence of emergency obstetric hysterectomy is 36/100,000 deliveries. The mean age of patients is 31.7 years old. The

In many poor countries of the world the need for surgical treatment of acute abdominal emergencies is largely unmet. In some cases this service is provided by physicians with little postgraduate surgical training, and there is a paucity of published data on the outcomes of this service. This series
A trial of labor after prior cesarean delivery is associated with a greater perinatal risk than is elective repeated cesarean delivery without labor, although absolute risks are low. Information and counselling aim to estimate specific risks and to balance these risks according to individual
