RESUMO
A complete septate uterus with cervical duplication and a longitudinal vaginal septum is a rare uterine malformation. The dissection of the septum can be difficult because it is difficult for hysteroscopists to find out initial point, direction and final point of a complete septum. This study aimed the introduction of more efficient surgical procedure using a balloon with methylene blue. We have experienced three cases with a complete septate uterus. We performed hysteroscopic dissection of a complete uterine septum using a balloon with methylene blue and obtained good reproductive outcomes. So we report three cases with a brief review of literatures.

Rare mullerian anomalies without any present classification were sometimes reported. A 30-year-old nulligravid woman was referred to our hospital with 2-year history of primary infertility. Laparoscopic examination revealed a relatively intact uterine fundus with both patent fallopian tubes. Hysteroscopic exam confirmed the presence of double vagina and cervix, as well as complete uterine septum with opening at the lower segment. Hysteroscopic septotomy was successfully performed through the right-sided cervix. A variant of complete septate uterus with double cervix that communicated at the isthmic portion could be successfully treated by hysteroscopic operation.
