TY - JOUR T1 - Severe vaginal bleeding secondary to cesarean scar dehiscence following incomplete abortion management JF - Saudi Medical Journal JO - Saudi Med J SP - 204 LP - 205 VL - 31 IS - 2 AU - Lateefa O. Aldakhil Y1 - 2010/02/01 UR - http://smj.org.sa/content/31/2/204.abstract N2 - Severe uterine bleeding is not a common presentation of cesarean section scar dehiscence in the first trimester. We present a 41-year-old lady with uterine scar dehiscence that was probably secondary to uterotonic medication used for the management of first trimester incomplete abortion. The use of uterotonic medications (Methergine) may be a contributing factor in this case. It should be used with caution in patients with previous uterine scar. ER -
