We examined 180 women aged 22 to 37 years in whom hysterosalpingography revealed uterine abnormalities. The women were somatically healthy, complained mainly of pregnancy failure and infertility, some of them had algodysmenorrhea. To specify the form of uterine malformation, identify a closed rudimentary horn, determine the distance between the horns, and the condition of fallopian tubes, 143 patients underwent chromolaparoscopy and 20 of them were combined with gas gynecography. The nature of surgical intervention was determined based on the findings. In addition, all the patients were subjected to ultrasound examination to detect both the form of uterine anomalies and combined pathology of the urinary system.
