dc.description.abstractUterine inversion is an uncommon and unpredictable but potentially life threatening obstetric emergency. The typical presentation is that of severe postpartum haemorrhage and shock along with a mass either felt in the vagina or protruding outside the introitus. Early recognition and prompt management (by teamwork) by simultaneous correction of shock and repositioning of the inverted uterus are imperative in order to minimize the potential for maternal morbidity and mortality. There is a need for skills and drills training because of the rarity of acute inversion. Here is a present a case report of acute inversion of uterus following vaginal delivery and its management. The accompanying review of the literature provides helpful insights into the diagnosis and optimal management of this potentially life threatening condition.en_US
