Journal Title: TMR Clinical Research - Year 2020, Vol 3, Issue 4

Abstract

A 18-year-old local Han Chinese primigravida woman suffered with severe pre-eclampsia. After blood pressure stabilization, convulsion prophylaxis and fetal lung maturity enhancement, emergency cesarean section was performed for inntractable headache at 32 weeks. Uterine inversion spontaneously occured at cesarean section. Immediately, uterine inversion was corrected manually without difficulty. Uterine atony and postpartum haemorrhage did not occur, and the patient made an remarkable recovery. This case report provides residents with excellent case-based learning. The management of uterine inversion requires immediate treatment for uterine repositioning. All staff members in the maternal unit should be updated with skills and knowledge about uterine inversion.
