The authors present an obstetrical case of silent uterine rupture due to prostaglandin E2 vaginal suppositories. Although this complication has been reported in the obstetrical literature, lack of attention to it in the anaesthesia literature, causes us to call this problem to the attention of
Although prostaglandins are largely used and considered safe drugs to induce midtrimester abortion, the literature reports several cases of uterine rupture consequent to their administration. We report the second ever-described case of uterine rupture after administration of gemeprost and
Uterine rupture in patients with labor induction with prostaglandin E2 application though uncommon is a very serious complication and preventable in obstetrics. We reported three cases of spontaneous uterine rupture following induction of labor with intracervical PGE2 gel administration in a dosage
BACKGROUND
Prostaglandin E2, when used for cervical ripening, often initiates labor. Single dosing and ease of removal contribute to the common use of a commercially available prostaglandin E2 vaginal insert. We describe two cases of uterine rupture among 57 pregnancies undergoing attempted vaginal
A case of uterine rupture is presented following induction of second-trimester abortion using oxytocin and prostaglandin F2 alpha. A brief review of the literature is given and etiological factors and diagnostic features are discussed.
Two cases of ruptured uterus are presented following attempted induction of midtrimester abortion using intraamniotic prostaglandin E2 and augmentation with other oxytocic agents. With continued uterine stimulation the diagnosis of rupture may not be obvious and the diagnostic features are
Prostaglandin E2 is a powerful oxytoxic agent that reliably initiates labor, even in the presence of an unripened cervix. The very low incidence of obstetric and neonatal side effects contributes to its universal use. Only nine cases of uterine rupture during the third trimester of pregnancy after
Prostaglandin E2 is a powerful oxytocic agent that reliably initiates labor, even in the presence of an unripe cervix. The low incidence of fetomaternal complication contributes to its universal use. We report a rare case of uterine rupture after intracervical application of prostaglandin E2 gel.
We report a case of a primiparous woman who was induced for post-term pregnancy with 2mg intravaginal prostaglandin gel. She developed hyperstimulation and ruptured her uterus. The pathogenesis and treatment of hyperstimulation is discussed.
Based on our own experiences and on the literature of the past 14 years the variety of the presenting symptoms in patients suffering from ruptured uterus during the second trimenon are discussed. focussing especially on the first symptoms of a so-called "silent" uterus rupture. A 41-year old second
