Fallopian tubal prolapse into the vaginal vault is a relatively rare postoperative complication after hysterectomy with adnexal preservation. The exact incidence is not known due to failure to diagnose and under-reporting. We hereby report a case who presented with unexplained vaginal bleeding post-hysterectomy, which was subsequently diagnosed and managed successfully.
