ABSTRACT
Rudimentary horn is one of the most rare congenital uterine anomalies and consists of a relatively normal appearing uterus on one side with a rudimentary horn on the other side. A rare case of rupture of a non-communicating rudimentary horn pregnancy at 15 weeks gestation is reported. The patient had signs and symptoms of massive hemoperitoneum. This reproductive complication was treated successfully by prompt exploratory laparotomy where excision of the rudimentary horn was done. Some of the factors associated with pregnancy in a rudimentary horn are discussed
