Results: During this period 21 patients with various uterine anomalies with pregnancy were studied. 19.4% patients had bicornuate uterus, 23.8% had septate uterus & 14.28% had unicornuate uterus, 9.52% had uterus didelphus, 23.80% patients had arcuate uterus and 4.76% patient of transverse vaginal septum and longitudinal vaginal septum each. Malpresentation was found in bicornuate, unicornuate, didelphys, arcuate uterus. Bad pregnancy outcome was seen in bicornuate, septate and unicornuate uterus.
