ABSTRACT: Mullerian duct anomalies are the most common congenital
anomalies of the reproductive system and septate uterus is the most frequently diagnosed
Müllerian anomaly. The true incidence of Mullerian duct anomalies is difficult to
state because some cases may be asymptomatic and there are pitfalls associated with
various diagnostic methods. This is a case report of a 17-year-old primigravida with septate uterus diagnosed at caesarean
section performed at term for cephalo-pelvic disproportion. Baby was delivered with bilateral
talipes equinovarus.
