Case description

Uterine inversion, which involves the collapse of the fundus of the uterus into the uterine cavity, is an extremely rare life-threatening obstetric complication with an incidence of one in 2,000–8,000 deliveries [1].

A second-degree acute inversion managed with combined abdominal and vaginal approach was for repositioning. Vaginally, Johnsons maneuver was used in corroboration with abdominal attempts.
