title: [Circular amputation of the uterine cervix, a rare complication of a normal delivery. Apropos of a case].
abstract: We report a rare case of spontaneous circular amputation of the cervix of the uterus, complicating a "eutocic" delivery of a girl weighing 3,700 g by a seven para. The interest of this case lies in: the difficulty in explaining this lesion where there had never been any obstetric manoeuvre or prolonged labour. as the placenta was complete the diagnosis was made by exploring the state of the cervix. rapid recovery was obtained by the simple surgical suturing of the bleeding vessels to secure haemostasis and by raising the haemoglobin level.
