Live term pregnancy in one horn of a bicornuate uterus.

The uterus and its appendages are a common site for congenital abnormalities although overall they are considered rare. One of the easily recognised and described mullerian duct anomalies is the bicornuate uterus. Although it is now believed that unlike septate uterus, bicornuate uterus is not associated with infertility, it is associated with adverse obstetric outcome. We present a case of live term pregnancy in one horn ofa bicornuate uterus in a 22 year old P0(+2) lady with 5 years history of infertility. The bicornuate uterus was undiagnosed before delivery and the antenatal period was uneventful. She was delivered of a live 3.8 kg male baby after an emergency caesarean section. The post partum period was uneventful and the patient was discharged home on the 8th post operative day. The issues surrounding the management of this rare condition are discussed.
