Uterine Adenofibroma: An Unsual Cause of Nonpuerperal Uterine Inversion in Postmenopausal Female

چکیده
Uterine adenofibroma is an extremely rare benign mixed mullerian tumor, most often presenting as vaginal mass with pain and abnormal uterine bleeding in postmenopausal females. Nonpuerperal uterine inversion is also an uncommon entity. We present a rare case of nonpuerperal uterine inversion due to a uterine adenofibroma. A 56-year-old postmenopausal female presented to us with bleeding and discharge per vaginum. Examination showed a polyp. Due to associated comorbidities, polypectomy was chosen as management modality failing which laparotomy was done, and the uterus was found to be inverted through the cervix, hysterectomy was done. Histopathological evaluation showed uterine adenofibroma. This is the first case of inversion reported due to uterine adenofibroma.
