Abstract

BACKGROUND: Chronic uterine inversion is a very rare and life-threatening disease. It requires emergent treatment.

CASE REPORT: We present the case of a 17-year-old patient with chronic uterine inversion. A fragile, bleeding, and soft mass, which filled the entire vagina, was seen during vaginal inspection. There was also a hard and tight cervical ring palpated behind the mass. She was operated on with Haultain technique. She was treated in the first postpartum year. She had normal menstrual bleeding and normal sexual intercourse after 1 month of outpatient control.

CONCLUSIONS: Immediate diagnosis and treatment of isolated chronic inversion decreases maternal morbidity and mortality.
