Non- puerperal uterine inversion is rare, and a case associated with endometrial carcinoma is even rarer. It is difficult to diagnose the condition preoperatively and most cases are diagnosed at surgery. Case. We describe a case of uterine inversion associated with endometrial carcinoma. Initially, the patient was thought to have a cervical adenocarcinoma and treated with chemotherapy; however, a diagnosis of uterine inversion was made with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasonography during pre- surgical chemotherapy. We performed total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral sal- pingo- oophorectomy, and bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy. Conclusion. MRI and ultrasonography can be extremely useful tools for diagnosing uterine inversion.展开更多
