  • Title: [Characteristics of the course and outcome of pregnancy in developmental anomalies of the uterus].
    Author: Khodareva TV.
    Journal: Akush Ginekol (Mosk); 1990 Mar; (3):30-2. PubMed ID: 2197891.
    Abstract:
    Ultrasonographic follow-up of 311 pregnant women with a history of habitual abortion has revealed uterine malformations in 61 (19.6%) women. An arcuate uterus was found in 25, bicornuate and duplex uterus in 20, septate uterus in 15 and unicornuate uterus in 1 women. The paper presents ultrasonographic criteria for the identification of uterine malformations and certain pregnancy complications. The study showed pregnancy outcomes to be correlated to malformation severity. The outcomes were satisfactory in the presence of the arcuate uterus and poor in the presence of the bicornuate and septate uterus. The findings suggest that all women with uterine malformations require a close follow-up throughout the pregnancy to make an earlier diagnosis and to remedy the abnormalities detected.
