Article Abstract
Rupture of a pregnant uterus is a serious threat to the mother's life and her fetus. Most of these cases have predisposing factors of which a post myomectomy scar is rare. Rupture of a post myomectomy gravid uterus usually occurs in the third trimester of pregnancy or during labor. We present a case of a very early spontaneous rupture which occurred at the 20th week of gestation in a post myomectomy uterus. To the best of our knowledge no previous report of a ruptured myomectomy scarred uterus has been described at such an early stage.

Department of Anesthesia, Hankou Hospital of Wuhan Wuhan 430014, Hubei, China.
Background: Managing postoperative pain and stress response was critical in laparoscopic myomectomy, a procedure for uterine fibroids. Ropivacaine transversus abdominis plane block (RTAPB) may offer enhanced analgesic efficacy and reduced stress responses compared to traditional analgesia.
Methods: This retrospective analysis examined 217 patients undergoing laparoscopic myomectomy at Hankou Hospital of Wuhan from June 2020 to September 2023.

Background: Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorder is a fatal condition responsible for obstetric haemorrhage, which contributes to increased feto-maternal morbidity and mortality. The main contributing factor is a scarred uterus, often from a previous cesarean delivery, myomectomy, or uterine instrumentation. The occurrence of PAS in an unscarred uterus is extremely rare, with only anecdotal cases reported so far in the literature.
