Abstract

The rate of incomplete uterine ruptures is unknown. These ruptures are usually asymptomatic but may cause chronic pelvic pain and/or intermenstrual bleeding. The conservative surgical repair techniques described in the literature are often practised by vaginal, combined (vaginal and laparoscopic) or hysteroscopic way. We propose an exclusive laparoscopic repair technique with satisfactory anatomical and functional short-term results.
