Abstract

Unicornuate uterus with rudimentary horn is among the rarest anomalies of the female genital system that emerges as a result of the underdevelopment of the Mullerian duct and brings forth, unless diagnosed and treated, risks of morbidity and mortality in gynaecological and obstetric terms. The present study defines two cases diagnosed with rudimentary horn pregnancy through ultrasonography and made subject to the excision of horn without rupture. Suspicion of the disease and use of ultrasonography play a key role in early and accurate diagnosis.
