Popis: Anomalies of the reproductive tract are common and present in about 3%–5% of the general population and in about 3% of infertile women. In general, they are asymptomatic, but they can also be associated with recurrent abortions or infertility. This is the case of a 27-year-old nulliparous woman presenting with the history of seven consecutive first trimester spontaneous abortions. Since her marriage 10 years back she conceived on repeated times but all the pregnancies ended in spontaneous miscarriage at around 10–12 weeks. Hysterosalpingography revealed a bicornuate/septate uterus. Hysteroscopic septoplasty with concurrent laparoscopy was planned after normalization of the endocrine parameters. She conceived spontaneously 7 months after the surgery. She had luteal phase support with progesterone, cervical cerclage and management of gestational diabetes, and pregnancy-induced hypertension. At 37 weeks of gestation, elective caesarean section was done with the delivery of a healthy female baby.
