Abstract:
Although there is insufficient evidence supporting the link between septate uterus and infertility, there are many studies demonstrated the effect of spetal incision on pregnancy in women diagnosed with septate uterus associated with infertility. Hysteroscopic metroplasty can significantly improve the reproductive performance of those with septate uterus. Some Müllerian malformations can be healed by surgery. The accurate diagnosis and appropriate therapeutic approch are fundamental for successful treatment. Any attempt at surgical correction of uterine abnormalities must be aimed at preserving or improving reproductive function. Among congenital uterine anomalies, septate uterus is the most amenable to simple hysteroscopic treatment. The resection of the septum is performed as standard treatment worldwide.
