Abstract
Septate uterus, which occurs in approximately 1% of fertile women, is considered the most common uterine anomaly but is associated with the poorest reproductive results. Uterine anomalies are especially associated with difficulty in maintaining a pregnancy to full term, often leading to late miscarriage or preterm delivery. We present a case of fetal microcephaly in a woman with septate uterus as a consequence of trapping of the fetal head between the septum and one of the uterine walls.
