Abstract

Abstract : ( BJOG. 2016;123:780–787) An increasing trend in the use of cesarean section worldwide implies a consequent increase in the rate of uterine rupture. The objectives of this study were to determine the trends in incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of uterine rupture over a period of 40 years in Norway.
