[Congenital Müllerian anomalies and delivery: analysis of 304 cases between 2000 and 2010 at the University Hospital of Lille].

OBJECTIVES

This study aimed to determine the conditions and way of delivery in women with congenital uterine malformations.

PATIENTS AND

METHODS

This retrospective study included a cohort of patients with malformed uterus giving birth in Lille University Hospital between 2000 and 2010, features such as way of delivery, labour, foetal presentation were compared with those patients without uterine malformation.

RESULTS

Patients with uterine anomalies had significantly higher rates of breech présentation (36.51% vs 4.52%; P<0.01) and cesarean section (55.26% vs 18.70%; P<0.01) compared to the group of women with a normal uterus.

DISCUSSION AND

CONCLUSION

Our results suggest that women with uterine malformation should be informed that they have an increased risk of caesarean section due to more frequent malpresentations.
