Pregnancy outcomes in women with uterine anomalies / 安徽医科大学学报

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate pregnancy complications,cesarean delivery and abnormal fetal presentation in women with uterine anomalies.Methods Fifty women diagnosed with uterine malformation and sixty women with normal uterus were retrospectively analyzed .Results The group comprised women with uterine malformation had significantly higher stillbirth or fetal death (P <0.05) and lower rates of the full-term delivery(P <0.05) than that of the control group.The subgroup comprised women with uterine anomalies had significantly higher rates of cesare -an section(P <0.05) and abnormal fetal position(P <0.05) than the control group.The birth weight and length of infant in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group (P <0.05).The rate of placenta abnormalities in uterine anomalies was significantly higher than that in control group (P <0.05).The incidences of premature rupture of membrane,cord entanglement,oligohydramnios,postpartum hemorrhage and neonatal asphyxia in observation group were no significant difference than those in control group .The rate of premature rupture of membrane(PROM) in uterus unicornis was significantly higher than that in other types (P <0.05).Conclusion Compared with women with normal uterus ,the incidences of abnormal fetal position ,the placenta abnormalities,pre-mature delivery,and stillbirth or fetal death in women with congenital uterine anomalies are high .Uterine anomalies are associated with a decrease in the birth weight and length .We should pay more attention to finding the uterine malformation and treatment before pregnancy .Antenatal care should be reinforced in pregnancy women with uterine anomalies.
