PREGNANCY CARRIED TO TERM IN A UNICORNUATE UTERUS WITHOUT RUDIMENTARY HORN: A CASE REPORT
Uterine anomalies, though uncommon, can greatly influence pregnancy outcomes and the process of childbirth. The unicornuate uterus, a congenital malformation stemming from the incomplete development of the Müllerian ducts, is linked to various obstetric complications, such as acute fetal distress and the necessity for urgent cesarean delivery. This case highlights a primigravid patient with an unmonitored full-term pregnancy, who presented to the obstetric emergency department in active labor. Cardiotocography revealed signs of acute fetal distress, prompting an emergency cesarean section.
