Uterus didelphys bicollis bicolpos-a case report.

Abstract

Uterus didelphys refers to a congenital uterine anomaly that occurs due to failed fusion of the paired Müllerian ducts. It is characterized by two separate non-communicating uterine horns each with its cervix and fallopian tube. Duplication may be limited to the uterus, cervix or also involve the vagina. Here, we present a case of a 27-year-old primigravida incidentally diagnosed during pregnancy, followed up with cervical cerclage at 13 weeks due to a short cervix and had preterm delivery via cesarean section at 35 weeks. She had a successful pregnancy outcome and an uneventful postnatal course. Uterus didelphys is associated with better reproductive outcomes compared to other anomalies. However, patients are at risk of fetal malpresentation, preterm labor and cesarean section. Patients therefore need to be counseled on the clinical implications for shared decision making regarding their reproductive health.
