| description | Abstract Background Uterovaginal prolapse in adolescents is rare, hence this report. Case Miss O.N. was a 17-year-old Para 1+0 A1. She had a regular menstrual cycle. She presented with complaints of mass protruding from her vagina of twenty months duration. The problem started four months after a normal delivery at a maternity home. Her mother had a similar problem after her last delivery. A diagnosis of uterine procidentia was made. The patient and her care giver consented to use of ring pessary only. Summary and Conclusion Uterovaginal prolapse can occur in a black adolescent with normal menstrual cycle and in the absence of obvious musculoskeletal or neurogenic defect. The etiology could be multifactoral. Ring pessary is an effective non-surgical treatment option in the young. |
