ABSTRACT An 18-year-old girl presented with progressively increasing dysmenorrhea. A pelvic mass was suspected which on exploratory laparotomy was found to be a rudimentary horn (hematometra, hematosalpinx). We report a case of unicornuate uterus with functioning rudimentary horn to highlight that mullerian duct anomalies should be considered in the differential diagnosis of severe dysmenorrhea even in normally menstruating girls. Unicornuate uterus with a rudimentary horn is susceptible to many gynecologic and obstetric complications. Hematometra, chronic pelvic pain, endometriosis, infertility are some of the complaints in women with unicornuate uterus. How to cite this article Choudhary R, Verma S, Meena A, Gothwal S.

A 45-year-old woman admitted to our hospital complaining of perimenopausal uterine bleeding not responding to medical treatment. Ultrasound evaluation revealed unicornuate uterus with adenomyosis and it was so difficult to see the distant small left rudimentary horn on ultrasound. The patient underwent laparotomy with total hysterectomy for both horns and was sent to pathologist that indicated adenomyosis and non-communicating non-cavitated left rudimentary horn.

Unicornuate uterus with rudimentary horn is a rare type of anomaly. The incidence is approximately 1/100,000. Mullerian anomalies are associated with many obstetrical and gynecological complications. Non-communicating and functional rudimentary horn can cause severe pain in abdomen due to accumulation of the blood causing its distension. Authors report a case of 25 years old patient with unicornuate uterus with non-communicating rudimentary horn containing functional endometrium presenting with chief complaints of severe pain in lower abdomen associated with multiple episodes of vomiting.
