Abstract
The aim of this study was to review the presentation, diagnosis, investigations, management, and outcome in women with a unicornuate uterus and a noncommunicating rudimentary horn. The study group consisted of three women diagnosed between the 1998 and 2000 as having a noncommunicating rudimentary uterine horn. This retrospective study investigated the diagnostic tools and complications in these women. All the women had a detailed menstrual history, a pelvic examination by a senior gynecologist, and an ultrasound scan. Table I outlines the clinical symptoms and investigations undertaken.
