Unusual Case of Acute Non-Puerperal Uterine Inversion in Rural Kenya: A Diagnostic Dilemma

Acutenon-puerperal inversion of the uterus is very rare and without a high index of suspicion, severe complications are possible.

This study reports the case of a woman with an asymptomatic fibroid who presented in shock with a vaginal mass and bleeding. The mass was a uterine leiomyoma complicated with uterine inversion. She recovered well from an emergency total hysterectomy and bilateral salpingectomy.

A high index of suspicion and immediate intervention are key points for all women presenting with a vaginal mass and vaginal bleeding.
