“…At term and near term, in patients with a history of previous caesarean section, careful and close monitoring of the mother and fetus during labor may aid in its rapid diagnosis, as abnormal progression of labor, Abnormal abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding, loss of presentation station, maternal tachycardia, and fetal bradycardia are indicative factors for detecting uterine rupture [15]. However, in early pregnancy, especially without the presence of predisposing risk factors, the diagnosis may occur with latency or never be detected; leading to life-threatening complications.…”

Uterine rupture (UR) is a life-threatening peripartum complication with a high incidence of maternal morbidity and mortality. It is quite common in the third trimester of pregnancy ranging from 1 / 8,000 to 1 / 15,000 pregnancies. Its true incidence in the first trimester is unknown as most of the reports are case reports or small series of cases. We report an exceptional case of uterine rupture at 13 weeks of amenorrhea in a 34-year-old patient with a history of a cesarean delivery 2 years ago, discovered following a late abortion due to persistent bleeding and failure of aspiration. Through this observation we would like to draw the attention of practitioners to this diagnosis, which is often overlooked in the first trimester.
