Article Synopsis
- This research investigates the ultrasound characteristics and outcomes of incarceration of the gravid uterus (IGU) in pregnant women to assist in medical management.
- A study at Hunan Provincial Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital analyzed 13 diagnosed IGU cases out of 140,162 deliveries, revealing prior abdominal surgery as the main risk factor and dysuria as a common symptom.
- The findings suggest that, while IGU is rare and often has a good prognosis, regular monitoring may be sufficient if there are no severe symptoms, with ultrasound being critical for diagnosis.

Incarceration of the gravid uterus is a rare and serious obstetric complication that can lead to severe complications. We present the case of a 32-year-old woman (gravida 5, para 2022) at 12 weeks and 5 days of gestation who presented with urinary retention and lower abdominal pain. Despite attempts at positional changes and manipulative repositioning under epidural anesthesia, the incarceration of the gravid uterus persisted.

Background: 'Incarcerated gravid uterus' is a morbid complication that occurs in 1 in 3000 pregnancies. It is characterized by failure of a retropositioned uterus to become an abdominal organ between 12 to 14 weeks of gestation. If maternal symptoms develop or gestational age surpasses 14 to 16 weeks, replacement of a retropositioned uterus is recommended to reduce adverse outcomes.
