UNEVENTFUL PREGNANCY IN DIDELPHYS UTERUS DELIVERED THROUGH CAESAREAN SECTION: A CASE REPORT

Abstract

Didelphys uterus, also known as "double uterus," is a rare congenital anomaly characterised by the presence of two separate uteri, each with its cervix. This happens as a result of the Müllerian duct embryonic fusion failing. The chance of having a pregnancy in one of the uteri without having any complications during pregnancy is relatively low. We are reporting a case of a 24-year-old primigravida woman with a didelphys uterus. The patient presented with the complaint of leaking per vaginum at term gestation in hospital IPD. She had undergone ultrasonography many times during her pregnancy, but no ultrasound finding suspects any congenital anomaly of the uterus. During the ninth month of gestation, when the patient came with leaking per vaginal, two vagina were discovered with a thick longitudinal vaginal septum, so she underwent an elective caesarean section due to the potential risks associated with vaginal delivery and under the suspicion of two separate uteri. During caesarean section, uterus didelphys was confirmed as two uteri with separate fallopian tubes and ovary; one was gravid, and another was non-gravid. The management of this condition requires careful planning and coordination among the multidisciplinary team to ensure a successful and safe outcome. The present case report reveals her history, diagnostic workup, caesarean delivery, and management outcome.
