Abstract:
Congenital malformations of the uterus are rare. Pregnancies in these uterine abnormalities are usually associated with poor reproductive outcomes such as recurrent pregnancy losses, preterm birth and intrauterine growth restriction. Presented here is the case of a 21-year old G2P1(1001), who was diagnosed intraoperatively with a septate bicornuate uterus during her second Cesarean delivery. She had to undergo abdominal delivery for both her pregnancies due to malpresentation, and delivered live healthy babies with no gross structural defects. Pathophysiology and classification of congenital uterine malformations are discussed in the case, as well as the diagnostics and management for such conditions.
