Chronic intervillositis (CI) and massive perivillous fibrin deposition (MFD), together with its related entity, maternal floor infarction (MFI), are rare and poorly understood placental lesions. Both MFD/MFI and CI are associated with poor fetal outcome and high risk of recurrence. We report a patient who was found to have both MFD and CI in the same placenta, resulting in severe intrauterine fetal growth restriction and intrauterine fetal death at 37 weeks of gestation. Characteristic histological findings included both very extensive perivillous deposition of fibrinoid material and a heavy infiltrate of CD68-positive macrophages/monocytes in the maternal intervillous space. To our knowledge, this is the first time the co-occurrence of MFD and CI is reported in the literature.

A Rudimentary horn is a rare form of congenital uterine anomaly, resulting from an arrest in the development of one of the Mullerian ducts with inappropriate fusion with the other side. In most of the cases no direct communicating channel exists between the two parts of the uterus. Pregnancy in the rudimentary horn represents a rare form of ectopic gestation and is thought to result from transperitoneal migration of spermatozoa or the fertilized ovum. Most patients with rudimentary horn pregnancy present in second trimester with hemorrhagic shock due to rupture of horn. Diagnosis of the rudimentary horn may be done with magnetic resonance imaging or 3D, 4D ultrasonography but confirmation of diagnosis is usually surgical at laparoscopy or laparotomy. We report a case with provisional diagnosis of a case of primigravida with 40+ weeks pregnancy with transverse lie along with placenta praevia and intrauterine fetal death. But at laparotomy it revealed a ruptured pregnant non-communicating horn of uterus.Bangladesh J Obstet Gynaecol, 2015; Vol. 30(1) : 53-55
