ABSTRACT

Pregnancy in a congenitally anomalous uterus is difficult and can be often missed on routine investigation such as transabdominal ultrasonography. Here we discuss a fascinating case of an accidentally diagnosed with unicornuate uterus having a communicating rudimentary horn with a live pregnancy in a 34-year-old sub fertile primigravida with IVF conception who was a known case of hypothyroidism. This rare diagnosis of Mullerian anomaly was made intraoperatively while the patient was undergoing caesarean section. Though there is massive advancement in the fields of imaging modalities and diagnostic ultrasonography, antenatal diagnosis has still remained elusive

Keywords: Mullerian anomaly, subfertility, poor ovarian reserve, unicornuate uterus, IVF conception
