BACKGROUND
An extensive, irreducible cervical prolapse during pregnancy is a rare condition and can lead to various complications, including severe cervical edema and dystocia in labor. Treatment options are very limited.
METHODS
A 33-year-old woman with spina bifida and a history of multiple intraabdominal operations and extensive intraperitoneal adhesions was admitted in labor at 36(6/7) weeks' gestation with an irreducible cervical prolapse. The cervical prolapse was reduced by topical application of concentrated magnesium sulfate.
CONCLUSIONS
In active labor, a prolapsed cervix that is enlarged and edematous can be managed with a topical concentrated magnesium solution to prevent cervical dystocia and lacerations.
