Spontaneous uterine rupture during second trimester is a rarity in obstetrics. Rupture of the pregnant uterus is considered spontaneous if the rupture occurs without contractile activity of the myometrium. An unusual case of asymptomatic spontaneous uterine scar dehiscence in second trimester with previous three lower uterine segment caesarean sections following endomyometritis is presented here.

Abdominal pregnancy (AP) is a rare event of globally reported pregnancy and is significantly challenging to diagnose because of various symptoms. Therefore, we aimed to present a case of a 26-year-old female with unexpected AP of third pregnancy found during emergency fetal evacuation laparotomy. The possible scenario was found to be fetus implanted into the fibroid scar of her obstetric history, leading to complications with uterine rupture.

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Society for Health Allied Research and Education, MediCiti Institute of Medical Sciences, Hyderabad, Telangana, India.

Background: A ten-group classification system of caesarean section was proposed by Michael Robson in 2001. It is helpful in comparing the rates of caesarean section between hospitals. The objective of this study was to determine the caesarean section rates to analyse trends of caesarean section and classify according to Robson's categories.

Biomimetic nanostructural materials based on placental amniotic membrane-derived nanofibers for self-healing and anti-adhesion during cesarean section.

Cesarean section (CS) is highly prevalent surgery among females. However, current absorbable anti-adhesion membranes used clinically can partially prevent postoperative adhesions but show limited efficacy in tissue regeneration, leaving post-cesarean women at risk for severe complications including cesarean scar pregnancy, placenta previa, and uterine rupture. Herein, we designed a fully amniotic membrane (AM)-derived biomimetic nanostructural materials (AM-BNMs) as an anti-adhesion barrier, and validated its therapeutic efficacy in a rat CS model.
