Clin Case Rep. 2017 Jan 19;5(2):145-149. doi: 10.1002/ccr3.766. eCollection 2017 Feb.

Abstract

The incidence of cesarean section (c-section) has increased worldwide. Because the major risk factor for uterine scar dehiscence (USD) is a previous c-section, the rate of this complication has also increased. Its clinical significance and management strategies are unclear. Here, we discuss USD particularly pertaining to its surgical treatment.

Keywords: Cesarean section; repair of uterine scar dehiscence; surgical treatment; uterine scar dehiscence.
