Defect in the uterine wall with prolapse of amniotic sac into it at 32 weeks' gestation in a primigravida woman without any previous uterine surgery

Abstract: We experienced a case of uterine wall defect with amniocele in a primigravida woman without any history of uterine surgery. On admission due to acute abdominal pain at 32 weeks' gestation, an ultrasound examination showed a 9 × 7-cm sized echogenic cystic area in the Morrison pouch. Color Doppler revealed a flow from the uterus into the cystic area through a myometrial defect. During the operation, a 1-cm defect in the uterine myometrium was found on the right fundus. An intact amniotic sac was prolapsed into … Show more

“…For example, Mishina et al . reported a case of uterine wall defect, a 1‐cm defect in the uterine myometrium on the right fundus, with herniation of the amniotic sac in a primigravida woman at 32 weeks’ gestation without any history of uterine surgery . Another case of spontaneous rupture of an unscarred gravid uterus was found in a primigravid woman at 32 weeks of gestation.…”
