Abstract

This is a case report of multiple uterine lithiasis in a 66-year-old, healthy woman. The patient had postmenopausal bleeding but no other complaints. She underwent uneventful vaginal hysterectomy, and multiple loose pieces of detached uterine lithiasis in the uterine cavity were found. It is very rare to find stones in the human uterus without any intrauterine device, neoplasia or malignancy.
