Abstract
Uterine rupture during labor is a serious and uncommon obstetrical complication that can lead to severe prognosis for the mother and her child if not immediately diagnosed and treated. Most spontaneous uterine ruptures occur during labor in parturients with a scarred uterus and are much rarer on an unscarred uterus. We report the case of a uterine rupture on unscarred uterus to a 32 year-old woman after a labor induced by intravaginal prostaglandin and intravenous ocytocine injection. Our management is compared with the data from literature.
