SUCCESSFUL PREGNANCY OUTCOMES IN CASES OF SEPTATE AND BICORNUATE UTERUS

Septate and Bicornuate Uterus

Abstract

INTRODUCTION

Fusion anomalies of the uterus result in variety of uterine shapes, which cause increased incidence of miscarriages, poor fetal growth, malpresentations and abnormal placental adherence in such patients. The prevalence of uterine anomalies in general population is 7 – 8 % [1] and now because of better availability of diagnostic modalities that is trans vaginal sonography, hysterosalpingography and laparoscopy better detection of such anomalies is possible. Reproductive outcomes can be improved with better treatment modalities, but generally poor reproductive performance prevails. Two such cases are presented here.
