ABSTRACT: It is a rare clinical condition that may occur to
two possible types: puerperal uterine inversion (IUP) and no puerperal uterine
inversion (IUNP). Obstetrician will observe often only once in his professional
practice. The risk of maternal mortality by hemorrhage is high. We report two
cases of uterine inversion requiring a hysterectomy, including a postpartum
mode and the other gynecological mode with young women. Hysterectomy remained a
last resort treatment in the two types, to reduce morbidity. In the case of
uterine inversion, the treatments without hysterectomy could be facilitated if
the management is early and adequate. Furthermore, the
support should be multidisciplinary and fast in the two types.
