RESUMO
Uterine rupture and postterm pregnancy pose a number of life-threatening complications to both mother and child, including severe intra-abdominal bleeding and peritonitis, birth injury, hypoxia, and fetal loss. This report presents a rare case of a 20-year-old female experiencing fetal demise at 60 weeks of pregnancy, with uterine rupture and bone tissue discharge from her vagina without severe intra-abdominal bleeding and peritonitis. The mild clinical course despite complete uterine rupture was due to the firm adhesion of the amniotic sac to the uterus caused by inflammation. The adhesion of the intestines to the rupture site prevented dehiscence of the ruptured wound. Suppuration and bone tissue discharge relieved the pressure on the patient's abdominal cavity and prevented subsequent occurrence of severe peritonitis. Radiologists mistakenly regarded the thick amniotic sac wall on the right side of the uterine wall as a right cornual pregnancy with uterine rupture caused by chronic inflammation. This report aims to bring awareness of this rare condition to medical students and radiologists.
