“…To the best of our knowledge, not more than 20 cases of neonatal UVP have been reported in English literature. [1234567891011] Utero-vaginal prolapse is the downward descent and protrusion of the uterus and vagina to the exterior via the introitus. It is as a result of weakness of the cardinal ligaments and uterosacral ligaments which provide support to the uterus.…”

Uterovaginal prolapse presenting at birth is very rare. The cause is attributed to conditions that can cause poor innervation or weakness of the pelvic floor muscle and the supporting ligaments. Different methods of treatment have been used in the past to reduce and maintain reduction of the prolapse. We report a case of a congenital UVP in a day old child noticed at delivery. He was delivered breech and had a sacral dimple with a tuft of hair. He was successfully managed conservatively with digital reduction and strapping of the buttocks down to the legs with crepe bandage for 72 h.

Genital prolapse is a rare condition in neonates. It is most commonly associated with neural tube defects such as spina bifida. A preterm, growth restricted neonate with genital prolapse without an associated central nervous system anomaly is reported. The risk factors, management and outcome of neonatal genital prolapse are reviewed. The importance of in utero undernutrition as a predisposing factor is emphasized.
