Uterine rupture in pregnancy is a rare and often catastrophic complication with a high incidence of fetal and maternal morbidity. A gravida 2 para 1 woman aged 40 years who was 33-34 weeks pregnant presented to our clinic with serious abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting that had begun 6 hours
Rupture of gravid uterus is surgical emergency causing maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. The risk of uterine rupture is associated with uterine scars caused by previous cesarean section, myomectomy, hysteroscopic procedures, and curettage. We report a case of a 40-year-old woman in 31st
Abortion was successfully induced in 79 of 80 patients in midtrimester, by the serial administration of 250 microgram of 15 (S)-15 methyl PGF2alpha intramuscularly every second hour until abortion occurred. All 12 patients with missed abortion and 87% of the legal abortion patients aborted within 24
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the method of mifepristone and misoprostol for pregnancy termination during the second trimester or for intrauterine foetal death during the second or third trimester. The primary outcome measure was time to delivery. Secondary outcomes included: complication registration, need
BACKGROUND
Previously described surgical complications following uterine artery embolization for leiomyomata include sequelae of uterine aberrant embolization (buttock and labial necrosis, vesicouterine fistula), prolapsed cervical myoma, uterine necrosis, ischemic uterine rupture and
BACKGROUND
Bicornuate uterus (BU) is a rare uterine anomaly result from incomplete fusion of the two Müllerian ducts during embryogenesis. BU very rarely can lead to rupture of the uterus during the early pregnancy with high mortality and morbidity rates.
METHODS
A primigravida in the first
The efficacy of 15-(S)-15-methyl-PGF2 alpha in inducing labour in 30 patients with intra-uterine fetal death was tested. The patients were divided into two groups of 15 patients and the drug was administered either by repeated intramuscular injection or by continuous intra-uterine extra-amniotic
This retrospective study was undertaken to compare the efficacy, side effects, and complications of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) given as a vaginal suppository with those of PGE2 administered via the intrauterine extra-amniotic route to induce labor after fetal death. The induction-to-delivery intervals
BACKGROUND
Advances in prenatal diagnosis make it possible to detect many fetal pathologies for which a termination of pregnancy (TOP) is possible in France. In pregnancies which go beyond 3 months, the use of prostaglandins combined with mifepristone has simplified this procedure. Since
The effect of Prostin (15/S/15 methyl prostaglandin F2 alpha) ampules applied intramuscularly to induce abortion in the second trimester of pregnancy was investigated. Out of 30 women who underwent the treatment, 28 (93.3%) cases were successful and 2 (6.7%) unsuccessful. The average time from the
BACKGROUND
A woman may need to give birth prior to the spontaneous onset of labour in situations where the fetus has died in utero (also called a stillbirth), or for the termination of pregnancy where the fetus, if born alive would not survive or would have a permanent handicap. Misoprostol is a
Rupture of a pregnant uterus in early pregnancy and an unscarred uterus are extremely rare, and some non-specific symptoms might appear before this occurrence. We report the case of a multiparous woman (gravida 3, para 2) with uterine fundal rupture in her early second trimester (17+ weeks of
BACKGROUND
When women require induction of labour, oxytocin is the most common agent used, delivered by an intravenous infusion titrated to uterine contraction strength and frequency. There is debate over the optimum dose regimen and how it impacts on maternal and fetal outcomes, particularly
