Abstract

Pregnancy in a non-communicating rudimentary horn is an extremely rare usually resulting in rupture during second trimester of pregnancy. The standard treatment is excision of the pregnancy and rudimentary horn. We report a case of ruptured non-communicating rudimentary horn at 27 weeks in a woman with previous vaginal delivery. She presented to emergency with acute abdominal pain and massive hemoperitoneum. Excision of the rudimentary horn was done at laparotomy and the patient had an uneventful recovery.
