Results of conventional and hysteroscopic surgery

Mullerian anomalies usually come to medical attention when they become problematic and require treatment. Most of these complications require surgical correction. The most commonly presenting anomaly is the double uterus which can be the source of recurrent abortion and preterm deliveries. The Strassman, Jones and Tompkins metroplasties have been shown to greatly improve the rate of successful deliveries in these patients. Hysteroscopic metroplasty, using either scissors, resectoscope or laser is now the recommended treatment for most septate uteri due to its relative simplicity, low morbidity and excellent reproductive outcome.
