Daniel Braun: "Re: Bicornuate versus Septate uterus" Yes this is not a septate, or subseptate uterus, but bicornuate. What do you want the imaging for? You have already eyeballed it and seeing it on MRI would be of academic interest only. Steve -----Original Message----- From: ob-gyn-l@obgyn.net [mailto:ob-gyn-l@obgyn.net] On Behalf Of Garry E. Siegel, M.D. Sent: Tuesday, 4 September 2007 12:07 PM To: Multiple recipients of list OB-GYN-L Subject: Gyn: Bicornuate versus Septate uterus Recently, I did a term breech section on one of our CNM patients who was noted at around 8 or 10 weeks to have a bicornuate uterus (new diagnosis). At surgery, she had a full septum, and the fundus had an indentation and two equal halves. I assume that this is bicornuate, as opposed to sepate, given the concavity on the external aspect of the fundus. . .correct? Anyway, would you simply image her with an MRI at 6 weeks? Does anyone have any experience with this? Also, and I don't mean to sound crappy, I wonder if this is a no-brainer for a radiologist who probably rarely sees MRIs for Mullerian abnormalities.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
