| Abstrakt: | As the incidence of cesarean deliveries increases, so do its accompanying complications. Although the incidence of uterine dehiscence in the late second trimester to the early third trimester is rare, it may be a potentially catastrophic complication if uterine rupture occurs. Here, we present two cases of uterine dehiscence at 28 and 29 weeks, which were diagnosed on prenatal ultrasound and confirmed intraoperatively at the time of cesarean delivery. We recommend consideration of earlier screening for preoperative detection of uterine dehiscence to help prevent maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality.
