The rarest among this rare entity is a non-puerperal uterine inversion. Non-puerperal uterine inversion is often chronic, although DAS has reported 8.6% of the inversion as sudden [8]. This is a rare case with no published figures available regarding its incidence and only 101 cases reported from 1940 to till date.
