Small bowel evisceration following an abdominal hysterectomy

Vaginal vault evisceration is a rare condition seen in postmenopausal women who have previously undergone hysterectomy, causing disruption of the vaginal vault and resulting in extrusion of intraperitoneal content. We report a case of a woman who presented with spontaneous rupture of the vaginal vault and prolapse of small bowel loop two years after abdominal hysterectomy. The rent in the vaginal vault was repaired via vaginal route after the repositioning of the bowel. Vaginal evisceration remains a rare but potentially serious condition that requires emergency surgical intervention
