Conservative surgical management of a ruptured non-communicating rudimentary horn of pregnancy at 13 weeks period of gestation in previous caesarean delivery: A rare case report

Abstract

Mullerian duct anomalies in females result from fusion or defective absorption during embryonic life. Pregnancy in a non communicating horn of the uterus is rare and its diagnosis is often missed. Rupture of this horn is seen in the first or second trimester. Standard treatment is to excise the horn. We present a case where in the horn was no excised but surgically repaired and the surgery was coupled with tubectomy.
