bicornuate-septate uterus: a new congenital uterine anomaly
Authors
abstract
abstract bicornuate uterus is class iv and septate uterus is class vin uterine anomaly classification. bicornuate uterus is almost always treated by laparotomy and metroplasty. but the treatment of choice for septate uterus is hysteroscopic metroplasty. bicornuate- septate uterus which is described in this paper is a new class of uterine anomaly(between class iv & v). the advantages of hysteroscopic metroplasty to laparotomy and metroplasty have been proven previously. it is important to know if the uterine anomaly is pure bicornuate or bicornuate-septate. in the latter case, we suggest the first line of operation should be hysteroscopic metroplasty.

Bicornuate and septate uteri are among the commonest Mullerian anomalies. They are sporadic and fairly distinguished, but hybrid deformities can occur. This combination creates aetiological and clinical difficulties. The alternative theory of concurrent fusion and septal resorption of the Mullerian duct is seen as the basis of the altered foetal embryology, while the favourable outlook of a bic...

Although asymptomatic cases naturally occur, congenital mullerian abnormalities can present with infertility, menstrual irregularity and recurrent pregnancy loss. Women with normal reproductive outcomes and recurrent pregnancy loss exhibit approximately 2-4% and 5-10% incidence of various congenital mullerian abnormalities.

We present a case of endometrial cancer arising in a bicornuate uterus, occurring in a 65-year-old woman. Unlike previously reported cases, our case showed mixed endometrial adenocarcinoma and undifferentiated carcinoma in one horn and focal adenocarcinoma in the other. Adequat...

Abnormal fusion of the mullerian ducts causes variyng degrees of congenital uterine anomalies, associated with reproductive problems. Twin gestation in a case of bicornuate uterus is extremely rare and with a poor reproductive performance. We are reporting this case because there are only a few cases, less than 20, in previous reports.
full textA Case of Successful Pregnancy in a Complete Bicornuate Uterus
Complete bicornuate uterus is a type of Mullerian duct deformity, resulting from abnormal duct fusion. Similar to other Mullerian anomalies, bicornuate uterus is associated with specific complications during possible pregnancies. While various studies have reported successful deliveries in a bicornuate uterus, it might be accompanied with various complications, ranging from preterm labor to mor...
