Surrogate twin pregnancy and childbirth in uterine didelphys: A report

Didelphic uterus is one of the congenital anomalies of the female genital tract (others include septate, bicornuate and unicornuate uterus). They usually arise when there are abnormalities of formation, fusion or resorption of the mullerian ducts. The significance of didelphic uterus is in its ability to predispose a pregnant mother to increased risk of preterm birth, prematurity, abnormal fetal lie and presentation, intrauterine fetal growth restriction, increased risk of operative delivery, low birth weight and its attendant perinatal morbidity. We present a 30-year-old surrogate mother who had caesarean section on account of preterm prelabour rupture of fetal membranes.
