title: Mid-trimester spontaneous uterine rupture.
abstract: The rupture of a uterus is still an enigmatic episode in obstetrics. Obstetricians may have to face it unexpectedly if it occurs spontaneously. Here, we report a case of a 20-year-old woman who presented to our out-patients department with abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding, and was diagnosed with a ruptured uterus.
