Uterine Prolapse during First Trimester Managed with Vaginal Pessary
Öz
Uterine prolapse during pregnancy is a rare condition with an estimated incidence of 1:10,000–15,000 pregnancies. Premature labor and delivery are the most prevalent complications in pregnancies with pelvic organ prolapse. Various treatment methods from conservative approaches to surgery are possible. In this paper we report a 27 year-old patient who was treated with Arabin pessary due to uterine prolapse in the first trimester.
