Which of the following patients is most at risk for uterine rupture?
A G3P2 whose youngest child is 3 years old.
A G2P1 who has had one prior lower transverse cesarean section.
A CS4 who has had three prior lower transverse cesarean sections.
AG4P3 whose last baby was born at term gestation.
The Correct Answer is C
A CS4 who has had three prior lower transverse cesarean sections is at the highest risk for uterine rupture. The risk of uterine rupture increases with each subsequent cesarean section, and a history of three or more prior lower transverse cesarean sections is considered a significant risk factor for uterine rupture.

Correct Answer is C
Explanation
Both genes of a pair must be abnormal for the disorder to be expressed. In autosomal recessive inheritance, the gene for the disorder is located on an autosome (any chromosome other than a sex chromosome) and a person must inherit two copies of the abnormal gene (one from each parent) in order for the disorder to be expressed. If a person inherits only one copy of the abnormal gene, they are a carrier of the disorder but do not typically show symptoms.
