Abstract
Abstract Objectives Müllerian anomalies are associated with infertility and worse pregnancy outcomes. Case presentation A 34-years-old primigravida patient affected by didelphys uterus and type 2 diabetes mellitus was admitted at 36.4 weeks with intrauterine fetal death. Labor was induced with oral Mifepristone and vaginal Dinoprostone. She had an uneventful vaginal delivery. Conclusions Pre-gestational evaluation should be recommended in each woman, in order to optimize clinical conditions in case of a chronic disease; moreover, if the patient is infertile Müllerian malformations should be excluded. In a didelphys uterus, the combination of Mifepristone and Dinoprostone could be a safe option for labor induction.
期刊介绍：
Case Reports in Perinatal Medicine is a double-blind peer-reviewed journal. The objective of the new journal is very similar to that of JPM. In addition to evidence-based studies, practitioners in clinical practice esteem especially exemplary reports of cases that reveal specific manifestations of diseases, its progress or its treatment. We consider case reports and series to be brief reports describing an isolated clinical case or a small number of cases. They may describe new or uncommon diagnoses, unusual outcomes or prognosis, new or infrequently used therapies and side effects of therapy not usually discovered in clinical trials. They represent the basic concept of experiences for studies on representative groups for further evidence-based research. The potential roles of case reports and case series are: Recognition and description of new diseases Detection of drug side effects (adverse or beneficial) Study of mechanisms of disease Medical education and audit Recognition of rare manifestations of disease.
