SAEZ CANTERO, Viviana de la Caridad. Omentum Transvaginal Prolapse as a Sign of Uterine Rupture. Rev Cubana Obstet Ginecol [online]. 2015, vol.41, n.2, pp. 126-131. ISSN 1561-3062.

Uterine rupture is a rare adverse obstetric event, causing high morbidity and maternal and fetal mortality. Its main etiology is dehiscence of the previous uterine scar. Exceptionally uterine rupture goes unnoticed and its diagnosis is performed long after it occurs, as is the case presented here, a woman, in which the omentum transvaginal prolapse was diagnosed months after an uncomplicated vaginal delivery. In reviewing the literature, no similar cases reporting was found, hence the scientific interest in the presentation.

Palabras clave : uterine rupture; omentum vaginal prolapse; late diagnosis of uterine rupture.
