# Pregnancy With a Bicornuate Uterus Complicated by Placenta Percreta and Intraperitoneal Hemorrhage

## TL;DR

This paper discusses a rare case of a bicornuate uterus leading to severe pregnancy complications, including placenta percreta and internal bleeding.

## Contribution

The paper presents a unique clinical case highlighting the risks of pregnancy in a bicornuate uterus.

## Key findings

- A bicornuate uterus can lead to placenta percreta and intraperitoneal hemorrhage.
- Such uterine anomalies require close monitoring to prevent severe maternal complications.

## Abstract

Uterine malformations significantly affect the reproduction process, and such anomalies can affect the progression and prognosis of a pregnancy. A bicornuate uterus is a rare congenital uterine anomaly that occurs due to a defect in the fusion of Müllerian ducts. It is associated with severe maternal and fetal complications, such as uterine rupture, vascular-related pathologies, preterm labor and birth, recurrent early or late loss of pregnancy, and fetal growth restriction. In such scenarios, close monitoring and ultrasound screening are needed to prevent obstetric complications. We report a case of a bicornuate uterus complicated with placenta percreta and intraperitoneal hemorrhage.
