Uterine rupture in the developing world remains a significant problem. We treated 45 such cases. The predisposing factors included cephalopelvic disproportion (62%), grand multiparity (33%), previous cesarean section (24%), placental pathology (15%) and abnormal presentation (20%). The factors associated with maternal death included sepsis (71%), macerated stillborn infant (60%), vulvar edema (50%), hand presentation (50%), prolonged labor (42%) and hysterectomy (37.5%). Hemodynamic resuscitation and prompt surgical intervention remain the mainstays of therapy.
