    Author: Umobi MA, Meltz RC, Barmat LI.
    Journal: Fertil Steril; 2005 Oct; 84(4):1017. PubMed ID: 16213861.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To describe a case of an accessory uterine structure. DESIGN: Case report. SETTING: University affiliated, community-based hospital. PATIENT(S): A 35-year-old woman who presented for laparoscopic tubal sterilization. INTERVENTION(S): Laparoscopy, tubal sterilization, dye test, and excision of accessory uterine structure. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Laparoscopic findings and resection of the anomaly. RESULT(S): Laparoscopy showed a hollow uterine appendage that communicated with the uterine cavity. This was completely excised. CONCLUSION(S): We report a rare case of a uterine anomaly that is inconsistent with the traditional classification system, and we offer a possible mechanism for its formation.
