Workup
Routine imaging for infertility workup often detects the anomaly. Uterus didelphys with obstructed hemivagina is an obstructive mullerian anomaly caused by the lateral nonfusion of the mullerian ducts with asymmetrical obstruction. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment
Due to a paucity of information on cervical ectopic pregnancies, the most effective treatment has not been clearly defined. Generally, there are two mainstays of treatment of ectopic pregnancies; surgical and medical. [westjem.com]
Treatments and drugs If you have a double uterus but you don’t have signs or symptoms, treatment is rarely needed. [pharmacypedia.org]
We present a surgical treatment with a result IB1, with systematic pelvic and paraaortic nodal dissection, with poor prognostic factors, she is chemoradiotherapy treatment. [clinicsinsurgery.com]
Treatment varies from a vaginal septum resection, to a metroplasty. [medigraphic.com]

This situation is particularly troublesome given that this type of malformation is the least common anomaly of the müllerian ducts but has the best prognosis in terms of alleviation of symptoms and future fertility of the patient (1x1Golan, A., Langer [fertstert.org]
Etiology
Etiology The uterus is formed during embryogenesis by the fusion of the two mullerian ducts. [wikidoc.org]
Etiology The uterus is formed during embryogenesis by the fusion of the two paramesonephric ducts (also called Müllerian ducts). [ipfs.io]
The etiology of uterine didelphys is unknown. It is an embryological abnormality resulting from the failure of fusion of the Mullerian ducts, causing full uterine development to erroneously occur bilaterally. They are usually asymptomatic. [omicsonline.org]

Cesarean section was performed in 82% of patients reported by Heinonen.[1] Uterus didelphys, in certain studies, has also been found associated with higher rate of infertility, miscarriage, intrauterine growth retardation, and postpartum bleed.[5] Epidemiology [en.wikipedia.org]

Prevention
Conclusion: The prompt and accurate diagnosis of this condition is essential to prevent complications from acute illness and to preserve future fertility. [mendeley.com]
Conclusion: Early and accurate diagnosis of this syndromeis important so that adequate and prompt surgical therapy (excision of the vaginal septum) can provide relief of pain and prevent further complications. [moh-it.pure.elsevier.com]
