Summary
Congenital uterine anomalies (CUAs) are gaining increasing attention in the field of gynaecological ultrasound for a number of reasons: first, they appear to be of relatively high prevalence in both selected and unselected groups of women ; second, they appear to have a significant impact on reproductive outcomes and, on occasion, in adolescent symptomatology ; third, there has been a recent surge in relevant publications, which has culminated in a new international classification , and also a new international consensus for diagnosis. Three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound is now recommended as the gold standard method for diagnosis, which implies that gynaecologists and/or sonographers may be expected to attain the correct diagnoses and classification of CUA for women presenting to them with, and even without, symptomatology.
