ABSTRACT

Uterine unicollis bicornis with one rudimentary horn is a rare event. A case is presented of an infected rudimentary system existing with an intrauterine pregnancy. The differential diagnosis of appendicitis, chorioamnionitis, premature labor, and pyelonephritis makes management of such cases difficult. The successful outcome of one such case is presented.
