Abstract
We describe a rare case of a 31-year-old woman at 28 weeks of pregnancy presenting with an incarcerated pedunculated fibroid in an umbilical hernia sac. She had a successful myomectomy and hernia repair and proceeded to have spontaneous vaginal delivery at term. Incarceration of a pedunculated fibroid presents a diagnostic puzzle which can be successfully treated by myomectomy.Entities:
