Main findings
There were three new complete ruptures among 72 mothers with previous complete uterine rupture (rate of 4.2%; 8.6% if previous rupture outside the LS and 0% if previous rupture in the LS). Mothers with repeat complete ruptures, all presented preterm with acute abdominal pain. There were six partial ruptures that were uneventful except for two premature births at 28 weeks. The corrected perinatal mortality was 1.3% and prematurity (<37 weeks) was very high (36.1%); this was noted even in the absence of new ruptures and was mostly iatrogenic. Those with an inter-delivery interval of 2-3 years had zero repeat complete ruptures.
