A Case Report of Patient With Uterine Torsion and Glob Vesicale Mimicking Twin Pregnancy

Abstract

The patient who was 35-year-old, gravidity 8, parity 7 and who had followed for a long time by the active phase of labor was referred to our clinic urgently due to cephalopelvic disproportion and fetal shoulder dystocia by helicopter ambulance. After the ultrasonographic examination, a fetus with bradicardia and whose measurement was 38th gestational week was noted and patient was taken up for emergency cesarean section. Intraoperatively, glob vesicale and uterine torsion were noted. The patient might be evaluated as a twin pregnant woman due to the pressure to urethra and bladder neck by fetal head with a severe uterine contraction and torsion of the pregnant uterus. We aimed to present the management of the patient with glob vesicale and torsion of the pregnant uterus on the light of the literature. Copyright © 2012 by Türkiye Klinikleri.
