The müllerian anomalies or congenital uterine anomalies are relatively frequent if we keep in mind that 3-4% of our female patients present with a müllerian anomaly, although many among them are asymptomatic. It is important to evoke this diagnosis for all patients with a history of recurrent miscarriage, late abortion and premature delivery, for the adolescent consulting for primary amenorrhea, dysmenorrhea or dyspareunia as well as for the woman consulting for infertility. We will review pathogenesis, diagnostic methods, standard classification with a description of the different types of congenital uterine anomalies and the recommended management.
