Sacculation of the Pregnant Uterus

From the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Miami School of Medicine, P O Box 875, Biscayne Annex, Miami, Fla 33152.

Abstract

A case report of true sacculation of a pregnant uterus and a complete review of the world's literature are presented. Thirty-seven cases have been analyzed. Most occurred in primigravidas and any area of the uterus was involved. No rupture of a sacculated uterus was reported but it may be involved in occurrences of retained placenta. In the absence of other contraindications, vaginal delivery may be anticipated.
