What should I do if I have a transverse uterus?

Patient's question:

In April, I had a miscarriage. They said the fetus had no heartbeat and had stopped developing. I have a septate uterus and was treated at our county people's hospital.

Doctor's answer:

The traditional surgical method for treating uterine septum involved laparotomy to incise the uterine wall, removing the septum along with a portion of the uterine wall. This approach caused significant trauma, prolonged recovery time, and required 3-4 years of contraception before pregnancy was possible. Delivery had to be performed via cesarean section, and there was a risk of postoperative uterine cavity and pelvic adhesions, leading to secondary infertility.
