Abstract
-
The occurrence of carcinoma in a congenital uterine anomaly is uncommon. Indeed, malignancy of the uterine fundus with congenital uterine anomaly is quite rare, with fewer than 50 cases reported in the world liturature. Many patients go through life without the knowledge of their presence, and they are discovered at autopsy. Early diagnosis and proper management is necessary to decrease the high mortality. We present a case of endometrial carcinoma in a single horn of a bicornuate uterus.
