Zusammenfassung

Introduction: Septate uterus is the most common (34%-48%) structural abnormality of all Müllerian duct defects. It results from incomplete resorption of the medial septum after the complete fusion of the müllerian ducts has occurred and is associated with infertility and obstetrical complications. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is used for diagnosing müllerian malformations with a specificity of 96 to 100%. Case report: We present the rare case of a viable twin pregnancy in a partial septate uterus and discuss the role of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in congenital uterine malformations. The diagnosis of ut…
