[Infertility caused by uterus bipartitus. Value of the Bret-Palmer operation].

Among the uterine malformations responsible for infertility, uterus bipartitus is one of the most amenable to surgery. The operation devised by Bret and Palmer is intended for those cases where the malformation is due to non-resorption of the medial septum and not for those where it is due to lack of fusion of the Mullerian ducts. The results are excellent, since 70% or 80% of previously infertile women subsequently became pregnant.
