• #8 The Impact of Uterus Didelphys on Fertility and Pregnancy

  https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9518538/

  Uterus didelphys occurs as a result of abnormal fusion of the paramesonephric ducts and is characterized by complete duplication of uterine horns, cervix, and very often also the vagina or presence of longitudinal vaginal septum. […] The anomaly is associated with a higher risk of miscarriage, preterm labor, breech delivery, and decreased live births. […] The presence of a uterine defect increases the risk of obstetric complications, indicating the need for frequent checks during pregnancy. Above all, there is an increased risk of spontaneous miscarriage, preterm births, births in the breech position, and a reduced number of live births compared to a normal uterus. […] The diagnosis is made on the basis of imaging studiesultrasound, HSG, and MRI. […] If there are no coexisting symptoms, treatment is waived. On the other hand, in case of obstetric failure, surgical treatment is possible, involving the fusion of two duplicated uteruses. […] Uterus didelphys as an isolated anomaly is not an indication for either surgical treatment or termination of pregnancy by cesarean section. […] The decision to perform a cesarean section in this case requires taking into account many factors.

  At her first appointment with Dr. Vash-Margita, Emily was told she had a complex condition called OHVIRA (Obstructed Hemi-Vagina with Ipsilateral Renal Agenesis). OHVIRA is a congenital, or present at birth, condition; it occurs when a girl has a double uterus, a missing kidney, and a wall of tissue that divides the vagina. […] However, if Emily had been diagnosed with OHVIRA earlier, she could have been spared the pain and psychological distress she endured once her period started. […] In the meantime, Emily needed to have surgery to correct the vaginal obstruction, a procedure that would eliminate the pain she’d been experiencing. Dr. Vash-Margita performed the surgery, which was done through the vagina and did not require any abdominal incisions, a few years ago. […] While the condition won’t make it any more difficult for Emily to become pregnant, she will be at higher risk for miscarriage and preterm labor than a woman who doesn’t have OHVIRA—but these are all issues that can be managed by a high-risk pregnancy specialist, Dr. Vash-Margita says.

  https://www.ccrmivf.com/blog/mullerian-anomaly-surgery-double-uterus/

  Occasionally, pregnancy implantation in the underdeveloped uterine horn can lead to miscarriage or preterm delivery. However, a non-communicating horn poses a much greater problem because the menstrual blood has nowhere to go and continues to build up, eventually causing considerable pain and increasing the risk of endometriosis because of the back-flow of menstrual blood into the pelvic cavity. Obstructed horns can be removed laparoscopically to alleviate these symptoms. […] Surgical unification does not seem to improve pregnancy outcome. […] Treatment involves the use of dilators or surgery to create a vagina to allow for satisfactory vaginal intercourse. Due to the absence of a uterus, women with MRKH can use IVF with a gestational carrier to achieve pregnancy. […] The size and shape of the uterine cavity can be improved with hysteroscopic surgery, but severe cases may require the use of a gestational carrier.

  A so-called double uterus or uterus didelphys is currently known as a complete bicornuate uterus based on the most recent categorisation developed by the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) in 2013. It is produced by a defect in the fusion of the paramesonephric ducts. According to the ESHRE nomenclature, it is a Class U2b and anomalies in the cervix can also be present. There may be a double cervix or double vagina and a longitudinal septum separating them in two. […] Treatment for bicornuate uteri is not generally required. However, there is surgical treatment known as the Strassmans metroplasty, which entails joining the two uteri externally and making an incision in the wall to join the two endometrial cavities. Indications for this surgery do not currently exist since no well-designed meta-analyses or studies have been able to demonstrate that it improves the patients clinical condition compared with refraining from having any treatment.

[…] The pregnancy outcomes after endoscopic metroplasty should be evaluated in large prospective trials to prove the obstetric benefit of the procedure. […] Surgical management appears to be the best option and given the established safety of laparoscopic procedure for removal of morphologically normal uteri, it was considered to be a suitable alternative treatment option in a case of didelphys uterus (ESHRE/ESGE class U3bC2).

  A so-called double uterus or uterus didelphys is currently known as a complete bicornuate uterus based on the most recent categorisation developed by the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) in 2013. It is produced by a defect in the fusion of the paramesonephric ducts. According to the ESHRE nomenclature, it is a Class U2b and anomalies in the cervix can also be present. There may be a double cervix or double vagina and a longitudinal septum separating them in two. […] Treatment for bicornuate uteri is not generally required. However, there is surgical treatment known as the Strassmans metroplasty, which entails joining the two uteri externally and making an incision in the wall to join the two endometrial cavities. Indications for this surgery do not currently exist since no well-designed meta-analyses or studies have been able to demonstrate that it improves the patients clinical condition compared with refraining from having any treatment.
