  • Title: [Uterine inversion].
    Author: Dirken JJ, Vlaanderen W.
    Journal: Ned Tijdschr Geneeskd; 1994 Jan 01; 138(1):38-40. PubMed ID: 8289958.
    Abstract:
    Inversion of the uterus is a rare complication of childbirth. A primigravida aged 21 and a multigravida aged 32, hospitalized as emergency cases because of inversion of the uterus with major blood loss, were treated with infusion of liquids (to combat shock), repositioning of the uterus under anaesthesia and prevention of reinversion by uterine tonics. Inversion of the uterus should be part of the differential diagnosis in every case of fluxus post partum.
