Issue Date: | 2010 | Publisher: | TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD | Source: | Journal of Maternal-Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, 23(8). p. 776-780 | Abstract: | Retroverted uterine incarceration with sacculation of the anterior wall is reported to occur approximately in 1/3000 pregnancies. A literature search identified only 1 case report of incarceration of an anteflexed gravid uterus and 6 reported cases of recurrent incarceration and/or sacculation. We present a case of an incarceration of an anteflexed uterus in the first pregnancy, followed by a retroflexed incarceration in the second pregnancy. From this, a review is presented on recurrent uterine incarceration and/or sacculation. | Notes: | [Dierickx, Inge; Mesens, Tinne; Van Holsbeke, Caroline; Gyselaers, Wilfried] Ziekenhuis Oost Limburg, Dept Obstet & Gynecol, B-3600 Genk, Belgium.
