Abstract

A nulligravida presented in traumatic shock and suffered pelvic trauma, including an absolute uterine rupture at the isthmus. Her uterus was reconstructed by reconnecting the uterine corpus with the cervix in an emergency surgery. Two years later, the patient became pregnant without any assisted technology.
