A 40-year-old woman with no history of caesarean section or uterine surgery presented with mild lower abdominal pain and mild genital bleeding. Transabdominal ultrasonography revealed intrauterine foetal death, at presumed gestational age of 20 weeks. Two hours after three doses of 400 μg 3-hourly of misoprostol, the patient complained of abdominal pain; however, the foetus was not expelled. Repeat sonography revealed the foetus in the abdominal cavity and fluid collection in the pelvis. Based on the probable diagnosis of uterine rupture, a laparotomy was performed. The intra-abdominal haemorrhage volume was approximately 250–300 ml. There was a linear rupture approximately 10 cm long on the posterior wall of the uterus, and as a consequence, a macerated and foetid foetus and part of the placenta were found in the abdominal cavity. A total hysterectomy was performed, and the patient was discharged three days after the intervention without any postoperative complications.
