- Abstract
- Pregnancy in rudimentary horn is rare. Rupture tends to occur in the second trimester. Only a few cases of the diagnosis of unruptured third-trimester rudimentary horn pregnancy have been reported. We experienced a case of unruptured rudimentary horn pregnancy at 28+3 weeks gestation confirmed by MRI. Successful delivery of a live male fetus weighing 955g by cesarean section and excision of the rudimentary horn with ipsilateral salpinx were carried.
