Objectives  To analyze the risk factors of uterine rupture in pregnancy in Chengdu Women’s and Children’s Central Hospital in recent years. Methods  The clinical data of pregnant uterine rupture patients who were hospitalized in Chengdu Women’s and Children’s Central Hospital from January 2011 to December 2017 were collected. The risk factors of uterine rupture in pregnancy were analyzed compared with the maternal delivery during the same period. The SPSS 23.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results  A total of 69 patients with uterine rupture were included, involving 14 cases of complete uterine rupture and 55 cases of incomplete uterine rupture. Compared with the pregnant females who were hospitalized during the same period, the incidence of uterine rupture in patients with scar uterus after cesarean section, history of laparoscopic hysterosalping surgery, placental implantation, twins and uterine malformation was higher, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Among them, the risk of uterine rupture was greater in the interpregnancy interval (IPI)>24 months after cesarean section in patients with scar uterus. There was no significant difference in the incidence of uterine rupture between the elderly and the multiple pregnant females and the maternal delivery during the same period (P>0.05). Conclusions  Scar uterus (postoperative cesarean section), history of laparoscopic hysterosalping surgery, placental implantation, twins, and uterine malformation are possible risk factors for uterine rupture in pregnancy. Among them, patients with scar uterus have a greater risk of uterine rupture with IPI>24 months.
