One-sentence paraphrase of the abstract; not a substitute for reading it. No clinical advice. How this works

Abstract

The unicornuate uterus is associated with a poor reproductive outcome and many gynecological problems. We collected data from 45 women with a unicornuate uterus. We found a high abortion rate of 22% in the first trimester and 16% in the second trimester. Premature labor occurred in 18%. The prevalence of infertility and endometriosis in women with a unicornuate uterus was comparable to women without the anomaly.
