Abstract
Acute inversion of the uterus is a rare complication during cesarean sectio n. We describe one such case in which diagnosis was made immediately and re version was performed within few minutes. A high index of suspicion and pro mpt management can prevent further complications. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
