title: [Uterine rupture during labor following surgical hysteroscopy].
abstract: Two cases of obstetrical uterine rupture after operative hysteroscopy without perforation are described. One was treated for uterus septus, the other one for synechia. However, the uterus could have been fragilized in both cases: one had been perforated by a uterine device, the other case had a past history of repeated curetage. A review of the literature shows 7 other similar cases, published over last ten years, 6 of them having a past history of perforation during the operative hysteroscopy (5 cases) or by an intra-uterine device. These obstetrical complications, although rare, can lead to consider a uterus treated by hysteroscopy as being at risk for obstetrical rupture.
