AI-generated summary
This case report describes a unique instance of uterine reorientation occurring during uterine fibroid embolization, noting that while positional changes are known to result from endometriosis and other factors, intra-procedural shifts have not been previously documented.

Abstract
Uterine Fibroid Embolization is an effective method of treating uterine fibroids as an alternative to surgery. Positional changes of the uterus secondary to pregnancy, pelvic surgery, urinary retention, endometriosis and fibroids have all been reported, however, no literature has specifically described the uterus incidentally changing position during uterine fibroid embolization. We present a unique case of uterine reorientation during a uterine fibroid embolization procedure.
