Abstract

Due to increased vaginal bleeding, a surgical operation was performed on a woman with cervical pregnancy. A diagnosis of uterine didelphis (UD) was made during surgery. The hypogastric arteries on both sides were ligated. After controlling the bleeding, the abdomen was closed. Uterine defects are a rare malformation that can cause a variety of obstetric problems in pregnant women, and they must be closely monitored and treated in terms of cervical pregnancy growth. As the pregnancy week continues, life-threatening bleeding may occur, and the patient may need a hysterectomy to stop the bleeding.
