But where the lower segment of the uterus is nipped in the ring of the pelvic brim, the laceration commonly involves all the tissues, at least in some part of the circumference. We then have a direct opening into the peritoneum through which the child may pass out of the uterus. Frg. 108. RUPTURE, P UTEEUS. Posterior aspect of same uterus as that represented in the preceding figure. The posterior wall of the cervix is bored through by long compression against the jutting promontory of the sacrum.

In these cases the lesion is always transverse. This is well illustrated in Figs. 107, 108. The subject was a very deformed dwarf, to deliver whom I was called to one of the workhouses. She had been long in labour, and great efforts had been made to deliver after craniotomy.
