    OBJECTIVE: To report a rare uterine anomaly of a septate uterus, double cervix, and double vagina. DESIGN: Case report. SETTING: A university-based reproductive endocrinology center. PATIENT(S): A 20-year-old nulligravida with primary infertility. INTERVENTION(S): Clinical examination and surgical resection of a vaginal septum with hysteroscopic examination of both hemicavities. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Description and treatment for a rare uterine anomaly and a subsequent literature search. RESULT(S): Successful resection of vaginal septum and subsequent spontaneous pregnancy. CONCLUSION(S): This rare anomaly is not explained by classic embryologic teaching and is not described by the classification system currently used to describe müllerian anomalies.
