Abstract
The rare condition of neonatal uterine prolapse is usually associated with congenital spinal defects and is often resistant to simple reduction. Previously, treatment has been primarily surgical and often deforming. In this case report a silastic-ensheathed pessary fashioned from a rubber Penrose drain allowed a nonoperative, simple and permanent correction, permitting the more important, yet less obvious, associated defects to take therapeutic precedence.
