How to treat unicornuate uterus

Normal women should have bilateral fallopian tubes, which is a normal condition. However, if one of a woman's fallopian tubes is not fully developed, a unicornuate uterus may occur. A unicornuate uterus can affect a woman's ability to conceive, so patients with a unicornuate uterus who are preparing to conceive will seek ways to treat it. So what treatments can be taken for patients with unicornuate uterus?

How to treat unicornuate uterus

The fallopian tube fimbria ostomy is performed 3-7 days after the menstrual period. There are two types of ostomy surgery:

One is laparoscopic salpingostomy, which has relatively less trauma and a pregnancy rate of 20%.

The second is open abdominal salpingostomy, which is relatively more traumatic than laparoscopic salpingostomy, but the cost is relatively lower than laparoscopy. The surgical precision is relatively higher than laparoscopic salpingostomy, and the postoperative pregnancy rate is slightly higher than laparoscopy. The success rate of this technology in one cycle is about 20%, the cost is about 20,000 yuan, and some patients have certain complications.

The dangers of unicornuate uterus

1. Infertility: Many people who have no uterus, have a deformed uterus, or have an immature uterus seek medical treatment for infertility.

2. Pathological pregnancy: Complications are very likely to occur during pregnancy, such as the fertilized egg implanting on the underdeveloped uterine wall or mediastinum, affecting the development of the embryo. These can lead to early miscarriage, habitual miscarriage, premature birth, etc.

3. Menstrual abnormalities: Those with primordial uterus or without uterus generally present with primary amenorrhea. A young uterus may produce scant menstrual flow. In patients with double uterus, bicornuate uterus and duplicate uterus, menorrhagia or prolonged menstruation may occur due to the increase in endometrial area.

4. Pathology during and after delivery: An abnormally developed uterus is often accompanied by uterine muscle hypoplasia, which can easily cause dystocia, and spontaneous uterine rupture can usually be seen. Placental retention and postpartum uterine atony bleeding are common after delivery.
