RESUMEN
Surgical correction of a chronic puerperal uterine inversion traditionally requires an anterior or posterior cervical incision to relieve the constricting band. This case is only the second reported case of robotic-assisted correction of a chronic puerperal uterine inversion and the first to avoid a cervical incision. The patient was 5 months postpartum and desired future pregnancy. After a laparoscopic Huntington technique was unsuccessful, a vertical hysterotomy was created in the anterior lower uterine segment and extended toward the fundus until the inversion could be relieved. The incision was repaired in 3 layers and a round ligament plication was performed to provide additional support within the pelvis. The patient's symptoms gradually improved during her postoperative course, and ultrasound 2 weeks after the procedure revealed the uterus in anatomic position in the pelvis. With a paucity of reported cases of laparoscopic correction of chronic puerperal uterine inversion, the present case offers a novel surgical approach that maintains cervical integrity and thereby minimizes long-term effects of the procedure on future pregnancies.
