The strongest risk factor was sequential labor induction with prostaglandins and oxytocin, compared with spontaneous labor, in those without previous cesarean delivery and those with previous cedars, and the important risk factors for complete uterine rupture in intact and scarred uteri are sequential labor induction and augmentation of labor with Oxytocin.

The case presented adds to the body of evidence of uterine scar dehiscence in the first trimester and may help in early identification and management of this rare but life threatening condition.

The findings suggest accurate discrimination between a simple scar dehiscence with the placenta underlying it andPlacenta accreta spectrum can be made on prenatal ultrasound if the pl pregnant woman is carefully examined for the vascular features unique to PAS.

This review examines current evidence to determine if a thin LUS ultrasound diagnosis during pregnancy with prior cesarean delivery(s) can reliably predict uterine rupture risk while attempting vagin*l birth after cESarean (VBAC).

It may be useful to routinely assess the lower uterine segment scar of women with previous emergency CS using the available ultrasound facilities, however, more studies are needed before advocating for routine antenatal uterine scar thickness testing following emergency lower segment CS in low and middle-income settings.

Although the outcomes in this case were uneventful, urgent delivery is required when uterine rupture is diagnosed and patients should be informed of the possibility of uterine ruptures during subsequent pregnancies.

The objective of this study was to investigate the fetal and maternal outcomes in subsequent pregnancies after a complete uterine rupture.

Scanning at appropriate intervals during pregnancy and accurate recognition of the ultrasonographic features of uterine scar dehiscence could be beneficial and help prevent maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality.
