Pre-labor silent rupture of unscarred uterus at 32 weeks with intact amniotic sac extrusion: a case report.
BACKGROUND
Spontaneous rupture of uterus in unscarred uterus prior to onset of labor in third trimester is extremely rare and to our knowledge, very few cases have been reported so far.


METHODS
A 26-year-old third gravida women with 32 weeks pregnancy presented with pre-labor rupture uterus with extrusion of intact amniotic sac from the rent in uterine fundus.


CONCLUSIONS
Rupture uterus can present in third trimester even before labor and should be kept in differential diagnosis of pregnancy with abdominal pain of any degree with fetal demise.
