background: the incidence of rudimentary heterotopic uterine horn pregnancy varies from 1:76,000 to 1:140,000. however the incidence of twin pregnancy i.e. intrauterine pregnancy in unicornuate uterus and its associated rudimentary horn pregnancy is estimated to be around 1 in 10 million gestations. case: here, we present 19 year old pramigravida women with acute haemoperitoneum with diagnosis ...

Unicornuate uterus with rudimentary horn is a rare type of uterine malformation associated with obstetrical complications.
