Abstract:
Objective: To assess the impact of uterine malformations on pregnancy outcomes. Methods: Case report of a patient who gave birth in our maternity unit in August 2024. Clinical presentation: The patient was 21 years old and had suffered two early miscarriages. She was admitted for management of severe intrauterine growth restriction with doppler abnormalities, not related to pre-eclampsia, and underwent a caesarean section during which a uterine malformation was discovered. Conclusion: Uterine malformations increase the risk of prematurity, low weight for gestational age, intrauterine growth restriction, pre-eclampsia, non-apex presentation and the caesarean section rate.
