(Dept. of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Cook County Hospital, Chicago, Ill. and Dept. of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Health Sciences/The Chicago Medical School, Chicago, Ill., USA). Spontaneous rupture of uterus in second trimester of pregnancy . Int J Gynaecol Obstet 13 : 219–221, 1975. Spontaneous rupture of a pregnant uterus in the second trimester is a rare condition. Most reported cases of ruptured uteri have occurred in the third trimester. We are adding 2 cases of second trimester uterine rupture to the literature, one due to placenta ac‐creta and the other with no demonstrable cause.
