Uterine Rupture with Misoprostol at 19 Week of Gestation
Abstract
Objective: Misoprostol is a synthetic prostaglandin E1 analogue that has been used commonly at obstetric practice even though received approval as an oral agent for the preventing of gastric ulcers. Its’ widely used at obstetric practice such as first and second trimester pregnancy termination, labor induction at term and management of postpartum hemorrhage. Even though its’ efficacy and widespread use, its safety is questioned in women with prior caesarean birth by the reason of increasing number of uterine rupture. Materials and method: We report a second trimester pregnant women with demised fetus with the history of myomectomy and prior low segment caesarean section who had uterine rupture after misoprostol administration.Results: Because of uterine rupture, we performed emergency laparotomy and repaired the rupture line Conclusion: Misoprostol has to be used more careful at patients with prior uterine surgery do to the increased uterine rupture risk.
