Background: Uterine rupture in pregnancy is rare and often could be life threatening and catastrophic.

Pregnancies occured after abdominal and laparoscopic myomectomy are high risk for uterine rapture. 
Case: Patient was a 28 Years old female, pregnant woman at the 20 wks of gestational age with abdominal pain and a history of abdominal myomectomy 6 yrs ago. Uterus was ruptured and fetus in amniotic sac was found in abdominal cavity. 
Conclusion: Early diagnosis of uterine rupture after myomectomy can save patients from death.
