Abstract :
Puerperal uterine inversion due to fibroid uterus is an uncommon event. Non puerperal uterine inversion secondary to fibroid accounts for 80-85% of cases. Diagnosis of incomplete late puerperal uterine inversion can be difficult. Case: We report a referred case of puerperal uterine inversion diagnosed on 27th postnatal day. Uterine inversion could not be reversed manually so laparotomy assisted replacement was done along with myomectomy. It was followed by balloon temponade of uterine cavity for control of haemorrhage and risk of recurrence.
