Pregnancy in non-communicating rudimentary horn of unicornuate uterus is an uncommon form of ectopic pregnancy usually resulting in rupture during second trimester with grave consequences for the mother and fetus. We report a case of ruptured non-communicating rudimentary horn at 28 weeks of gestation in woman with previous Caesarean section in unicornuate uterus. She presented to emergency wit...

Pregnancy in a non-communicating rudimentary horn is very difficult to diagnose before it ruptures, leading to life -threatening intraperitoneal hemorrhage. A 22-year-old second gravida patient presented at the Emergency Center of the University Clinical Center of Kosova with a 16-week history of amenorrhea and acute onset of severe abdominal pain. She was resuscitated and taken for an emergenc...

Pregnancy in non-communicating rudimentary horn is rare. It occurs following transperitoneal migration of sperms or zygote. Uterine rupture usually occurs in 70-90% cases in the second trimester by 20 weeks. Diagnosis of rudimentary horn pregnancy and its rupture in a woman is difficult. It can be missed in routine ultrasound scan and in majority of cases it is detected after rupture. It requir...

A non-communicating rudimentary horn is an uncommon site for ectopic pregnancy. Rudimentary horn pregnancy (RHP) is a rare entity but associated with grave clinical consequences. Majority of these cases if not detected timely end up in uterine rupture and present as an obstetrical emergency. We present this case of a 32-year-old, third gravida with a 12 weeks live gestation in the right rudimen...

BACKGROUND Pregnancy within a noncommunicating rudimentary horn is a known complication of unicornuate uterus. The risk of rupture approximates 50%, most of which occur in the second trimester. CASE A rudimentary horn pregnancy was discovered at 8 weeks gestation. Medical termination was then performed with fetal intracardiac potassium chloride and intraplacental methotrexate. Magnetic resona...

Abnormalities of embryogenesis of mullerian duct system resulting in congenital anomalies of female genital tract are relatively common [1]. The prevalence of congenital uterine anomalies in the general population is 6.7 % [2]. In women with a history of repeated pregnancy loss, the rate of mullerian anomalies increases to 3–25 % [2, 3]. Unicornuate uterus accounts for 5 % of all mullerian anom...
