520 |a OBJECTIVE: to analyze a case of uterine rupture in a pregnant woman that had a previous laparoscopic myomectomy 
520 |a METHODS: pregnant woman at 34 weeks gestation came to our emergency room for abdominal pain. She had undergone a previous laparoscopic multiple myomectomy. Patient was evaluated in our Department, that is a tertiary center, by a team of experienced ultrasonographers 
520 |a RESULTS: at a first clinical examination, the findings were a deep abdominal pain, dysuria and a positive Giordano's sign on the right. 2D ultrasound showed an alive intrauterine foetus, normal anterior fundal placenta and mild reduction of amniotic fluid. It revealed also a maternal right pyelectasis. A further meticulous ultrasound evaluation plus color Doppler revealed on the left side of the uterus the presence of a small vascularised area with venous and arterial flow that seemed to be in continuity with umbilical cord and that had its ultrasound characteristics. Emergency laparotomy was performed and confirmed the hypothesis of uterine rupture 
520 |a DISCUSSION: uterine rupture seems to occur more frequently as a consequence of a laparoscopic myomectomy and the classic signs and symptoms are fetal distress, loss of uterine contractility, abdominal pain, hemorrhage and shock, so the early US suspect of uterine rupture was extremely important in the decision to perform an emergency caesarean section 
520 |a CONCLUSION: the correlation between clinical examination and ultrasound-Doppler findings has been essential to recognise an obstetrical emergency and to perform prompt surgery
