title: Unicornuate uterus and uterus didelphys indications and techniques for surgical reconstruction: a review.
abstract: Unicornuate uterus and uterus didelphys consist of miscellaneous congenital malformations of the female genital system. These anomalies can cause many gynecological and obstetrical complications including infertility, ectopic pregnancy, recurrent abortions and preterm deliveries. Laparoscopy and hysteroscopy are two helpful operative procedures in establishing an accurate diagnosis and treating effectively. A case of a patient with unicornuate uterus and longitudinal vaginal septum, who presented at our hospital suffering from infertility, is reported.
