Abstract
Uterine inversion is a condition in which the interior surface of the relaxed uterus protrudes through the vaginal entrance. Its causes are divided into two categories: puerperal and non-puerperal, with puerperal uterine inversion being more common than non-puerperal uterine inversion. The most common variety is acute inversion, which occurs immediately or within 24 hours after delivery. Chronic Uterine Inversions (CUI) that occur more than four weeks after delivery are uncommon. In this study we discuss a case of a 30-year-old woman who came with the complaints of feeling of a mass in the vagina after her last confinement which was gradually coming down through the vagina and remain outside the introitus for 5 years. Based on clinical and sonographic evaluation, she was diagnosed with CUI and developed post partum haemorrhage. We adopted Haultain’s method for correction of CUI. Since, CUI as a painless vaginal mass in the delayed post-partum period is uncommon and hence documented.
