Laparoscopic excision of a rudimentary horn and tube in a unicornuate uterus with endometriosis was performed successfully after GnRH analogue treatment.

Abstract

One case of unicornuate uterus with a cavitary rudimentary horn and unilateral extensive endometriosis was treated by laparoscopy, after three months of treatment with GnRH analogues. The rudimentary horn and the corresponding tube were removed. The post-operative course was uneventful. Laparoscopic radical management of this malformation reduces both peritoneal damage and economic cost.
