Uterine inversion is a rare condition that refers to the collapse of the fundus into the uterine cavity and occurs in puerperal and non-puerperal conditions. Non-puerperal uterine inversion is particularly infrequent. Diagnosing non-puerperal uterine inversion is often challenging because it resembles vaginal or cervical tumors and pelvic organ prolapse.

Purpose: Non-puerperal uterine inversion (NPUI) is a rare gynaecological entity with unknown actual incidence. It presents diagnostic and surgical challenges, due to its rarity and lack of clinical experience.
Methods: Case series of 5 NPUI cases.
Key Clinical Message: The diagnosis of chronic uterine inversion occurs after birth or secondary to pathologies of the pelvic region organs. Especially, the diagnosis and treatment of isolated chronic inversion rapidly under appropriate conditions seem to reduce maternal morbidity and mortality.
Abstract: Chronic uterine inversion is a rare clinical diagnosis and difficult to diagnose and treat.
