Intrapartum Vaginal Myomectomy of a Prolapsed Cervical Fibroid

Abstract

ABSTRACT Cervical and vaginal fibroid may be seen in less than 1% of the pregnant women. During labor, they may be responsible for obstruction or cervical dystocia. Usually in such cases, cesarean section is done to deliver the baby. An extensive literature search has shown only few case reports outlining vaginal myomectomy of a prolapsed cervical fibroid during pregnancy and none during labor. We are reporting a case of cervical fibroid which prolapsed outside the introitus during early labor resulting in obstructed labor for which intrapartum vaginal myomectomy was done to facilitate vaginal breech delivery.
