  • Title: Sonographic findings of early pregnancy in the rudimentary horn of a unicornuate uterus: A two case report.
    Author: Dove CK, Harvey SM, Spalluto LB.
    Journal: Clin Imaging; 2018; 47():25-29. PubMed ID: 28823603.
    Abstract:
    Congenital uterine anomalies have a profound impact on reproductive outcomes. The unicornuate uterus accounts for approximately 20% of all congenital uterine anomalies. Unicornuate uterine anomalies with non-communicating rudimentary horns are at risk of developing ectopic pregnancy in the rudimentary horn. Given increased risked of uterine rupture, rudimentary horn pregnancies pose significant maternal health risks. Understanding the sonographic appearance of early pregnancy within the rudimentary horn of the unicornuate uterine configuration is imperative for appropriate and timely clinical management. We present two cases of pregnancy in the rudimentary horn of a unicornuate uterus diagnosed sonographically in the first trimester.
