1 Surgical approach for the non-communicating rudimentary horn of a pregnant unicornuate uterus during c-section

Abstract

Introduction and aims of the study: Unicornuate uterus with a rudimentary horn is a congenital uterine malformation as a result of fusion defects of the Mullerian ducts and is commonly associated with renal tract anomalies. This pathology relates to poor obstetric outcomes, moreover, since pre- and post-conceptional management of rudimentary horns with functioning endometrium remains indefinite. The aim of this report is to illustrate a different approach to the rudimentary horn at the moment of delivery.
