The reported incidence varies considerably, with reports ranging from 1 in 10,000-15,000.It is due to difficulty in delivering the placenta associated with weakness of supporting ligaments.It can lead to various complications like irreversible shock and can even cause maternal death.It is imperative that the condition is recognised quickly and managed promptly in order to minimise the maternal morbidity and mortality.Here we are presenting a case of uterine prolapse during 3rd stage of labour managed successfully
