    Uterine rupture refers to a tear in the uterine wall that can occur during pregnancy, labor, or delivery and endangers the health of the mother and fetus. Risk factors include a previous cesarean section, uterine surgery, or congenital uterine anomalies. A rupture can be complete, tearing through all three layers of the uterine wall, or incomplete. Signs and symptoms include sudden abdominal bleeding, vaginal bleeding, abnormal fetal heart rate, cessation of contractions, and hypovolemic shock. The risk of rupture increases with the number of previous cesarean sections.
