Nonpuerperal uterine inversion

Abstract

Inversion of uterus may be classified as puerperal or obstetric and nonpuerperal or gynecological. Nonpuerperal uterine inversion has been described as a rare occurrence and is usually precipitated by tumors sited at the fundus of the uterus which exert traction force to cause the inversion. We present a case of 50 years old P3L3 who presented as emergency in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology with C/C of mass protruding out from vulva and bleeding per vaginum since 6 hours and was finally diagnosed as a case of chronic inversion uterus with prolapsed fundal submucosal fibroid. Myomectomy was done followed by hysterectomy and she had uneventful postoperative period.
