Conclusions: Pregnancies in women with uterine anomalies are associated with recurrent miscarriages, preterm labors and deliveries, intrauterine growth restriction, abnormal fetal presentations, and other complications; however, pregnancy in an abnormal uterus may progress without incident and result in normal labor.

Abstract

To evaluate the outcome of pregnancies in cases with uterine anomalies. Design: Retrospective evaluation of the outcomes of pregnancies in cases with uterine anomalies at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Baskent University, Ankara, between January 2002 and January 2006. Setting: Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Baskent University School of Medicine, Ankara Patients: The outcomes of pregnancies in 8 cases with uterine anomalies were evaluated. Main outcome measures: Perinatal outcome Results: Uterine anomaly was detected in 8 (8/1250, 0.6%) of the cases delivered during this 4-year period. Two cases with uterus didelphys had uneventful antenatal period, and gave birth to healthy newborns by cesarean section with the indications of breech presentation at term. In two of three patients with unicornuate uterus, symmetrical early intrauterine growth restriction developed at the beginning of the third trimester. One of them delivered a viable newborn weighing 2510 g by cesarean section with the indication of breech presentation at 37 weeks of gestation. In the second patient with unicornuate uterus and early intrauterine growth restriction, preterm premature rupture of membranes developed at 31+6 weeks of gestation and premature contractions started at 32+2 weeks. She was delivered by cesarean section due to failure to progress, and gave birth to a viable female weighing 920 g. The third case who had unicornuate uterus had primer infertility, and conceived spontaneously after an diagnostic hysteroscopy. McDonald cervical cerclage was put at 19 weeks of gestation due to incompetent cervix. She gave birth to a viable female weighing 3550 g by cesarean section with the indication of breech presentation at 38+3 weeks of gestation. In one of two cases who had bicornuate uterus, preterm premature rupture of membranes occured at 28+5 weeks of gestation and she gave birth to a viable newborn weighing 1300 g via cesaren section due to fetal distress at 29+5 weeks of gestation. The second patient with bicornuate uterus had uneventful antenatal period, and a healthy baby was delivered by cesarean section at term. One patient with septate uteri had undergone hysteroscopic resection of the uterine septum; antenatal period passed uneventfully and she gave birth to a viable female by vaginal delivery at 38+4 weeks of gestation. Conclusions: Pregnancies in women with uterine anomalies are associated with recurrent miscarriages, preterm labors and deliveries, intrauterine growth restriction, abnormal fetal presentations, and other complications; however, pregnancy in an abnormal uterus may progress without incident and result in normal labor.

Özet

Uterin anomalili vakalarda gebelik sonuçlarının değerlendirilmesi. Planlama: Ocak 2002-Ocak 2006 tarihlari arasında Başkent Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Kadın Hastalıkları ve Doğum Anabilim Dalında uterus anomalisi mevcut vakalarda gebelik sonuçlarının retrospektif olarak incelenmesi. Ortam: Başkent Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Kadın Hastalıkları ve Doğum Anabilim Dalı, Ankara Hastalar: Uterin anomalisi olan 8 vakaya ait gebelik sonuçları değerlendirmeye alındı. Değerlendirme parametreleri: Perinatal sonuç Sonuç: Bu 4 yıllık sürede doğum yapan hastalar arasında 8 hastada uterin anomali tespit edildi (8/1250, %0,6). Uterus didelfisi olan 2 hasta olaysız bir antenatal periyodu takiben, termde makat prezentasyonu endikasyonuyla sezaryen seksiyo ile sağlıklı bebek doğurdu. Unikornuat uterusu olan 3 hastadan ikisinde simetrik erken intrauterin büyüme geriliği gelişti. Bu hastalardan birisi 37. gebelik haftasında makat prezentasyonu endikasyonuyla sezaryen seksiyo ile 2510 g canlı bebek doğurdu. Unikornuat uterusu olan ve erken intrauterin büyüme geriliği gelişen diğer hastada 31+6. gebelik haftasında membran rüptürü gözlendi; 32+2. haftada prematür uterin kontraksiyonlar başladı ve hasta ilerlemeyen eylem nedeniyle sezaryen seksiyo ile 920 g canlı kız bebek doğurdu. Unikornuat uterusu olan üçüncü hastanın primer infertilite öyküsü mevcuttu; tanısal histeroskopi sonrası spontan gebe kaldı. Servikal yetmezlik nedeniyle 19. gebelik haftasında McDonald servikal serklaj konuldu. Hasta 38+3. gebelik haftasında makat prezentasyonu nedeniyle sezaryen seksiyo ile 3550 g canlı kız bebek doğurdu. Bikornuat uterusu olan 2 hastadan birisinde 28+5. gebelik haftasında membran rüptürü gözlendi ve hasta fetal distres nedeniyle 29+5. haftada sezaryen seksiyo ile 1300 g canlı bebek doğurdu. Bikornuat uterusu olan diğer hastada gebelik komplikasyonsuz seyretti ve termde sezaryen seksiyo ile canlı bebek doğurtuldu. Uterus septusu olan bir hasta histeroskopik septum rezeksiyonu sonrası gebe kalmıştı. Antenatal periyot olaysız geçti ve 38+4. gebelik haftasında vajinal yolla canlı bir kız bebek doğurdu. Yorum: Uterin anomalili kadınların gebeliklerinde tekrarlayan düşükler, prematür eylem ve doğumlar, intrauterin büyüme geriliği, anormal fetal prezentasyonlar ve diğer komplikasyonlar eşlik eder; ancak kimi vakada gebelik olaysız seyredebilir ve normal doğum eylemi ile sonuçlanabilir.
