ABSTRACT
Uterine rupture during pregnancy is rare but a catastrophic event. It is more common in a scarred uterus compared to an unscarred uterus. We report a case of rupture of an unscarred uterus in the second trimester with no known risk factors and emphasise awareness of this condition and immediate intervention for achieving a better prognosis.
Keywords: Acute abdomen, Maternal mortality, Unscarred uterus, Spontaneous uterine rupture.
