Abstract

Neonatal genital prolapse is a rare condition, usually associated with congenital spinal defects and is often resistant to simple reduction. A case of complete uterine prolapse which was noted shortly after birth in a female baby with a meningocele at the lumbar region with rectal prolapse is reported. The vagina and uterus was restored to their normal position but came out immediately after reduction.
