Abstract

Non-puerperal chronic uterine inversion is a very rare entity, usually precipitated by tumours sited at the fundus of the uterus which exert traction force to cause the inversion. Here we are presenting a case of 55 year postmenopausal female P7L2D5 with non-puerperal chronic uterine inversion with fundal fibroid which has caused dragging of urinary bladder wall in it which is a rarest entity. Exploratory laparotomy was done with proper dissection at bladder and ureters to prevent the injury. Safely hysterectomy was done after cutting the rim of the cup. Histopathology was suggestive of leiomyoma with chronic cervicitis. Post-operative course in ward was uneventful and patient could go back to work.
