Case report: a novel surgical approach to obstructed hemiuterus: sonographically guided hysteroscopic correction.
Unilateral obstruction of a duplicate uterus is very rare. The current recommendation for its correction involves transmural incision of the uterine muscle. A method is presented here that was successfully applied in one patient suffering from this anomaly, using sonographically guided hysteroscopy. This method obviated the need for an extensive operation.
