Uterine inversion in old age is a rare complication. Submucosal fibroid or polyp is mostly the cause of nonpuerperal inversion. Diagnosis can be made on physical examination but it may be difficult. Management consists of manual reposition of uterus or surgery either through abdominal or vaginal route. We report a case of nonpuerperal uterine inversion in an unmarried nulliparous postmenopausal...

Acute uterine inversion is a rare and life-threatening post-partum complication which often occurs when the placenta fails to detach from the uterus after childbirth. The uterine fundus falls into the endometrial cavity and may descend to the cervix (incomplete) or beyond the cervix (complete). Death may occur in 15% of the affected mothers due to pain, blood loss and shock. The shock is often ...

Teratomas are the most commonly diagnosed germ cell tumors and occur primarily in testes and ovaries. Platinum-based therapy followed by surgical resection of the residual lesion is generally the recommended treatment. In contrast, immature uterine teratomas are rare, with few cases reported in the literature. Moreover, there is no standard treatment for these tumors. Non-puerperal uterine inve...

Uterine inversion is a rare complication of the postpartum period and an even rarer complication of the nonpuerperal period. A 47-year-old woman, gravid 2, para 2, was referred to our hospital with blood-stained leucorrhoea and severe anemia. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans showed a U-shaped uterine cavity and the pedicles of a tumor attached to the uterine fundi. The patient underwent a...

Today, infertility takes a major place in gynecology practice. Non-puerperal uterine inversion is a rare event and usually accompanies submucous myoma, leiomyosarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, malignant mixed Mullerian tumour, and endometrial polyp. Herein, we report a 39-year-old woman who suffered from secondary infertility together with uterine inversion, which is an extremely rare co-existence.

We present a case of acute uterine inversion in the third stage of labor in which critical management decisions were facilitated by ultrasound imaging in the operating room. Identification of the ovary and adnexa pulled into the indentation of the inversion allowed the successful diagnosis and guidance for uterine replacement.

Uterine inversion is rarely seen in adolescents in western countries. But it might be seen in teenagers and adolescents due to poor conditions and early pregnancies in Africa. And early troubleshooting chronic uterine inversion represents an early resolution of the problem and allows planning pregnancy without complications.

Inversion of the uterus through the uterine lower segment incision during a caesarean section is an extremely rare obstetric incident. It consists, though, an emergency complication that is potentially life-threatening, especially in cases of prolonged inversion, because haemodynamic instability and shock may occur. Prompt diagnosis and immediate uterine reversion are the key actions in the man...

Introduction Acute puerperal uterine inversion, though rare, is a well-recognised obstetric complication. It must not be forgotten while dealing with a case of postpartum haemorrhage and shock. Successful management and reduction of morbidity and mortality rates are largely dependent upon prompt recognition. Although mismanagement of third stage of labour is generally conceded to be the immedia...
