True unicornuate uterus-Pseudounicornuate uterus Figure 1. Later HSG demonstrates apparently unicornuate uterus with normal left fallopian tube. Figure 2. First hysterosalpingography (HSG) showed a apparently unicornuate uterus with normal fallopian tubes. A 27 year old patient presented with primary infertility of 3 years' duration and also a history of myomectomy (5 years ago) was referred to...

According to the literature the prevalence of congenital uterine anomalies varies between 3.4 and 5.0% and Müllerian anomalies are found more often in subfertile patients compared to fertile controls (Raga et al., 1997; Grimbizis et al., 2001). Congenital malformations of the Müllerian system are probably caused by multifactorial polygenic and familial factors. The prevalence of a unicornuate u...

BACKGROUND The pregnancy outcome of the unicornuate uterus is associated with an increased risk of miscarriage, cervical incompetence, and a number of obstetric complications. However, at present, there is no accepted treatment method for women with unicornuate uterus, other than expectant measures. The aim of this study was to evaluate the reproductive outcome of transcervical uterine incision...

The presence of cervicovaginal agenesis with unicornuate uterus is a very rare mullerian anomaly. Its true incidence is still unknown. The presence of functioning unicornuate uterus poses a great challenge for a gynecologist because a successful repair could restore normal menses and may preserve a patient's fertility. Hence, we report a case of 16-year-old unmarried female who presented with c...

A unicornuate uterus with a rudimentary horn is an anomaly caused by defective fusion of the Müllerian duct, estimated to occur in one in 76,000 pregnancies. Life threateningly heavy bleeding is a highly expected clinical consequence of such pregnancies. According to the known literature, only two living twins and few living singleton pregnancies have been reported up to now. Here we report on ...

Approximately 1 in every 76,000 pregnancies develops within a unicornuate uterus with a rudimentary horn. Müllerian uterus anomalies are often asymptomatic, thus, the diagnosis is a challenge, and it is usually made during the gestation or due to its complications, such as uterine rupture, pregnancy-induced hypertension, antepartum, postpartum bleeding and intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR)...

INTRODUCTION A unicornuate uterus accounts for 2.4 to 13% of all Müllerian anomalies. A unicornuate uterus with a non-communicating rudimentary horn may be associated with gynecological and obstetric complications such as infertility, endometriosis, hematometra, urinary tract anomalies, abortions, and preterm deliveries. It has a poor reproductive outcome and pregnancy management is still uncle...

A case of laparoscopic excision of a rudimentary horn is presented. The anatomical features of this case are contrasted with others in the published literature. A 23 year old nulligravida presented with severe dysmenorrhoea and a pelvic mass. At laparoscopy a unicornuate uterus with a rudimentary horn was identified. The patient had stage III endometriosis. The rudimentary horn was attached to ...

Pregnancy in non-communicating rudimentary horn of unicornuate uterus is an uncommon form of ectopic pregnancy usually resulting in rupture during second trimester with grave consequences for the mother and fetus. We report a case of ruptured non-communicating rudimentary horn at 28 weeks of gestation in woman with previous Caesarean section in unicornuate uterus. She presented to emergency wit...

The presence of a unicornuate uterus is a rare congenital condition which represents only 1-2% of uterovaginal anomalies. Previous reports have demonstrated an increase in the number of cases of primary infertility, pregnancy loss and preterm labor associated with the unicornuate uterus. Herein, we present a case in which a patient conceived following a thawed frozen embryo transfer. She had be...
