Abstract

Unicornuate uterus with rudimentary horn is a type of Mullerian duct malformation. This rudimentary horn may or may not have functional cavity. This cavity is usually found to be noncommunicating with main cavity of unicornuate uterus. This rudimentary horn can create certain obstetrical and gynecological problems. Pregnancy in rudimentary uterine horn is a dangerous kind of ectopic pregnancy; its rupture causes massive hemoperitoneum. Collection of menstrual blood in the rudimentary horn will result in hematometra and can cause chronic pelvic pain and subsequent endometriosis. Three cases with different clinical presentation are being presented.
