Description
Summary:Müllerian anomalies are congenital disorders that affect the female reproductive system, often leading to a range of obstetric complications. These anomalies include structural abnormalities such as arcuate, septate, unicornuate, and bicornuate uteri, which can impact fertility, pregnancy outcomes, and delivery methods. This case series presents five patients with different types of Müllerian anomalies, including septate, arcuate, and unicornuate uteri. Each case is discussed concerning its presentation, diagnostic process, therapeutic interventions, and outcomes. These cases highlight the complications associated with these anomalies, including recurrent pregnancy loss, preterm delivery, and the necessity of cesarean sections. This series underscores the importance of early diagnosis and individualized management of Müllerian anomalies to improve obstetric outcomes. Advanced imaging techniques and surgical interventions, such as hysteroscopic metroplasty, can enhance reproductive success and reduce pregnancy-related complications.
