[Uterine rupture after tubal reimplantation]

Abstract

The authors report a case of rupture of the right cornu of the uterus in the ninth month of pregnancy in a woman who had had her right tube implanted into her uterus. This complication is considered, in the discussion, to be rare. It is very difficult to prevent it happening during pregnancy. It would seem that a prophylactic caesarean operation should be carried out if the insertion of the placenta is in the area of the implantation.
