Abstract

We report the case of a 46-years-old Malagasy woman who is admitted at emergency room with vaginal painful mass and vaginal heavy bleeding. Uterine inversion which is due to a fundic submucosal myoma was found on clinical examination. The management was surgical and done by an abdominal hysterectomy.
