We report a case of hematometra secondary to occlusion of the cervical canal, after type III excision (conization) by loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) in a 27-year-old patient with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade III. Treatment consisted of surgical opening of the external orifice of the uterine cervix, spontaneous drainage of the contents of the uterine cavity and insertion of a cooper intrauterine device, with the aim of trying to avoid further obliteration of the endocervical canal.
