Septate uterus with cervical and vaginal duplication: A rare Mullerian malformation
A rare case of Mullerian anomaly in a 26-year-old woman who presented with recurrent pregnancy loss and was found to have a longitudinal vaginal septum with cervical duplication and two endometrial cavities separated by a complete septum. The diagnosis of this unusual anomaly was aided by magnetic r...

description | A rare case of Mullerian anomaly in a 26-year-old woman who presented with recurrent pregnancy loss and was found to have a longitudinal vaginal septum with cervical duplication and two endometrial cavities separated by a complete septum. The diagnosis of this unusual anomaly was aided by magnetic resonance imaging and was confirmed by hysterolaparoscopy. It was concluded that hysteroscopy aided in the diagnosis and treatment of this Mullerian defect with the highest quality of precision. Hysteroscopy therefore is considered gold standard in the management of septate uterus, thereby helping to regain the anatomical normality and because of its minimally invasive nature, it improves the reproductive outcome. |
