A rare case of non-puerperal uterine inversion caused by a large fundal leiomyoma was successfully treated. Surgical intervention, including laparotomy, corrected the inversion and restored normal uterine function.

Area of Science:

  • Gynecology
  • Surgical Case Reports

Background:

  • Non-puerperal uterine inversion is a rare condition.
  • Large fundal leiomyomas can precipitate uterine inversion.

Observation:

  • A 36-year-old nulliparous woman presented with intractable hemorrhage due to uterine inversion.
  • The inversion was caused by a large fundal leiomyoma.

Findings:

  • Vaginal myomectomy and attempted cervical transection failed to reduce the inversion.
  • Laparotomy was required for successful surgical correction of the uterine inversion.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of considering leiomyomas as a cause of uterine inversion.
  • Surgical management, potentially involving laparotomy, may be necessary for complex cases.
