Two women presenting with recurrent pregnancy loss were both diagnosed to have septate uterus. After hysteroscopic resection of the septum under laparoscopic guidance, successful term pregnancy was achieved in one patient, while second patient is currently on her 24th week of gestation. Septate uterus is the most common type of congenital uterine anomaly and has long been known to be associated with recurrent miscarriages, late-term abortion, and preterm labor. The pre-treatment abortion rate is 90%, which is both distressing for the patient and frustrating for the physician. Hysteroscopic septal resection under laparoscopic guidance is considered the standard for treatment, and is shown to improve reproductive outcome.
