Abstract
A 40-year-old woman underwent operative hysteroscopy for suspected sub mucosal myoma, during which the uterine fundus was perforated. At lapa rotomy the perforation site was sutured. In a subsequent pregnancy she had a sudden onset of abdominal pain. Laparotomy revealed a uterine r upture with a partially protruding placenta. A healthy newborn was del ivered by a low-segment cesarean section.
