Abstract

The unicornuate uterus is a rare type of the anomalous uteri, which is caused by failure of development of one of the mullerian ducts. This condition is usually associated with various degrees of rudimentary uterine horn. The unicornuate uterus with rudimentary horn is susceptible to many gynecologic and obstetric complications. Urinary tract anomalies, pelvic endometriosis, primary infertility are claimed to be common complaints in women with unicornuate uterus. We have experienced a case of rudimentary uterine horn adenomyosis associated with agenesis of ipsilateral kidney, pelvic endometriosis in a 13 years old girl. So we report this case with a brief review of literatures.
