Uterine anomalies are usually incidental findings in our environment, because of the limited spread of noninvasive diagnostic procedures. We present a case of a 26-year-old G7P4+2 (none alive). She presented at 36 weeks of gestation with antepartum hemorrhage secondary to placenta previa. At surgery, she was delivered of a fresh still-born male baby that weighed 2.3 kg and found to have a bicornuate unicollis uterus.
