Septate uterus with bilateral tubal blockage: a case report and literature review

Abstract

Septate uterus is a form of congenital anomaly of the müllerian ducts. This anomaly of the female reproductive tract may be associated with various reproductive problems including infertility, recurrent miscarriages, increased risk of preterm delivery, abnormal fetal presentation, delivery by caesarean section, intrauterine fetal growth restriction, low birth weight, and perinatal mortality. Diagnosis of a septate uterus on imaging may be challenging due to its similarity with other congenital uterine anomalies. We present a case of septate uterus with bilateral tubal blockage in a young woman being evaluated for primary infertility who was referred for hysterosalpingography.
