Abstract

Fallopian tube prolapse through a ruptured vagina is a rare, but well-documented, gynaecological condition. The majority of cases reported in the literature complicated vaginal hysterectomy and presented with vaginal bleeding and pelvic pain. We report a case after abdominal hysterectomy, which presented with urinary symptoms, an unreported presentation, and was managed successfully via the vaginal route. An update on the cases reported in the literature is also presented.
