Abstract

Mullerian duct anomalies refer to a set of congenital structural malformations which result  from abnormal development of the paramesonephric or Mullerian ducts in utero. Mullerian abnormalities are estimated to affect 0.5-5% of the general population. A didelphys uterus, commonly known as “double uterus”, is an infrequent type of Mullerian duct anomaly. This report describes a rare case of a 25 years old primigravida who had a spontaneous conception followed by successful delivery of a healthy baby via cesarean section at 37 weeks of gestation.
