Abstract
Acute puerperal uterine inversion is an uncommon but serious complication occurring in the third stage of labor. This event is associated with significant blood loss and neurogenic shock. We report a case of spontaneous grade III uterine inversion during the third stage of labor in a 36-year-old primipara. Manual manipulation was immediately attempted to reverse the inversion. Predisposing factors and the approaches used to correct uterine inversion are reviewed.
