Puerperal Uterine Inversion and shock
British journal of anaesthesia, 2004Co-Authors: R.m. Beringer, M PatterilAbstract:Uterine Inversion is an unusual and potentially life-threatening event occurring in the third stage of labour. It is associated with significant blood loss, and shock, which may be out of proportion to the haemorrhage, although this is questionable. When managed promptly and aggressively, Uterine Inversion can result in minimal maternal morbidity and mortality. A recent case is described, followed by a short review of the literature.

Non-puerperal Uterine Inversion: a case report.
Ghana medical journal, 2011Co-Authors: Co Fofie, P BaffoeAbstract:Non-puerperal Uterine Inversion is rare. A 42-year old woman presented with lower abdominal pain, offensive vaginal discharge and a huge protruding mass per vaginum. A clinical diagnosis of non-puerperal Uterine Inversion was made and she successfully underwent vaginal hysterectomy. A high index of suspicion is required to make a prompt diagnosis.

Ultrasound diagnosis of complete Uterine Inversion in a nulliparous woman.
Acta obstetricia et gynecologica Scandinavica, 2012Co-Authors: Hao LinAbstract:Non-puerperal Uterine Inversion is an extremely rare event, and the diagnosis is made during vaginal examination or exploratory laparotomy. We report a case of complete Uterine Inversion which was diagnosed on abdominal ultrasound examination in a 50-year-old nulliparous virgin who was admitted to the hospital because of profuse vaginal bleeding, lower abdominal pain and anuria. The confirmatory diagnosis of complete Uterine Inversion secondary to a fundal fibroid was made at exploratory laparotomy. Total abdominal hysterectomy was performed, and the pathological examination confirmed its benign nature. Ultrasound evaluation is useful in the diagnosis of non-puerperal Uterine Inversion.

Chronic Uterine Inversion at 14 weeks postpartum.
Obstetrics and gynecology, 2007Co-Authors: Sharee L Livingston, Corenthian Booker, Paul Kramer, William C DodsonAbstract:Uterine Inversion is a rare complication of vaginal delivery. When chronic Inversion is encountered it is often associated with benign or malignant tumors of the uterus. Management of chronic Uterine Inversion may require several standard techniques before reversion is accomplished. A woman presented with chronic vaginal bleeding 14 weeks after vaginal delivery complicated by a fourth-degree laceration. Chronic Uterine Inversion was diagnosed. This diagnosis was unique due to the length of time from delivery to diagnosis and therapeutic modalities implemented. Uterine Inversion can occur in the acute (less than 24 hours) or chronic (greater than 1 month) phases. The clinician's clue to chronic Uterine Inversion, as in this case, may be persistent vaginal bleeding.

Case Report Postpartum Prolapsed Leiomyoma with Uterine Inversion Managed by Vaginal Hysterectomy
2016Co-Authors: Kelly L. Pieh-holder, Heidi Bell, Tana Hall, James E. DeventeAbstract:Copyright © 2014 Kelly L. Pieh-Holder et al. This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Background. Uterine Inversion is a rare, but life threatening, obstetrical emergency which occurs when the Uterine fundus collapses into the endometrial cavity. Various conservative and surgical therapies have been outlined in the literature for the management of Uterine Inversions. Case. We present a case of a chronic, recurrent Uterine Inversion, which was diagnosed following spontaneous vaginal delivery and recurred seven weeks later.The Uterine Inversion was likely due to a leiomyoma.This late-presenting, chronic, recurring Uterine Inversion was treated with a vaginal hysterectomy. Conclusion. Uterine Inversions can occur in both acute and chronic phases. Persistent vaginal bleeding with the appearance of a prolapsing fibroid should prompt further investigation for Uterine Inversion and may require surgical therapy. A vaginal hysterectomy may be an appropriate management option in select populations and may be considered in women who do not desire to maintain reproductive function. 1
