SasikalaMootha | Usharani Bathula [3]
Abstract: Uterus didelphys is a condition of lateral fusion defect causing two hemi uteri and cervices. It constitutes approximately 5 % of the mullerian duct anomalies. These malformations are associated with miscarriage, premature labour, premature rupture of the membranes, and malpresentation. Here we present an interesting case of bicornuate uterus with pre eclampsia and IUGR. Interestingly, in our present case report, this woman had single pregnancy in the right uterus and gave birth to a baby by caesarean section. Conclusively, we state that patient with uterus didelphys belong to high risk group and deserve a particular prenatal care. Therefore it is of great importance for the clinician to detect these abnormalities of the reproductive tract in early stage by USG.
