| Popis: | Obstetric uterine inversion is a rare and life-threatening complication. Diagnosis is often difficult to establish, particularly in recurrent or chronic cases.We performed color Doppler examination in addition to B-mode sonography in a case of subacute recurrent uterine inversion.Identification of the vessels providing uterine blood supply helped to clarify the distorted anatomy; furthermore, information about tissue viability was gained.We propose to perform color Doppler examination in all cases with suspected uterine inversion or vaginal masses of unknown origin. |
