Abstract
Rudimentary horn pregnancy is a rare ectopic pregnancy in uterine horn caused by abnormal or failed development of one Müllerian duct with a healthy fetus. A significant number of cases reported an incidence of 1 in 76,000 and 1 in 150,000 and some cases are not detected. Timely management of rudimentary horn pregnancy is pivotal in reducing mortality and morbidity. This study is designed to present a case of live 36-week primary horn ectopic pregnancy diagnosis using Ultrasound. Serum B-HCG levels normalized on postoperative first month. Keywords: Cornual ectopic pregnancy, Healthy fetus, Müllerian duct anomaly Rudimentary horn.
