The uterine rupture during pregnancy is one of the most serious complications, increase morbidity and maternal and fetal mortality. The uterine rupture by percrete placenta is rare. We present the case of a 39 years-old patient, pregnancy of 16.3 weeks by ultrasound, which enters by abdominal pain 48 hours of evolution, of predominance in the hypogastric region, that during its evolution presented hemodynamic compromise and increase of abdominal pain. By ultrasound: free liquid in abdominal cavity is observed. With laparothomy we found perforated uterus with placenta free and product in abdominal cavity, obstetrical hysterectomy was performed, we confirmed the diagnosis of uterine rupture by percrete placenta.

Uterus and Cervix

The uterus, commonly called the womb, is a vital reproductive organ in females designed to provide a nurturing environment for the implantation and growth of an embryo. It is shaped like a hollow pear and positioned between the urinary bladder and the rectum. The uterus's structure allows it to support and protect a developing fetus throughout pregnancy.
The uterus is securely anchored within the pelvic cavity by paired broad ligaments on either side. It is further stabilized by three pairs of...

Uterine Tubes

The uterine or fallopian tubes function as the conduit through which oocytes travel from the ovaries to the uterus. Each fallopian tube measures approximately 10 to 13 cm long and is anatomically divided into the infundibulum, ampulla, isthmus, and interstitial part (or intramural segment). The infundibulum is characterized by its funnel shape and features extensions called fimbriae which reach towards the peritoneal cavity. These fimbriae play a critical role during ovulation as they extend...
