Uterine didelphys is a congenital anomaly of the female genital tract, arising from issues during the formation, fusion, or resorption of Müllerian ducts. This condition significantly increases pregnancy risks, including preterm birth, prematurity, abnormal fetal lie, intrauterine fetal growth restriction, and a higher likelihood of operative delivery and low birth weight. The research presents a case of a 30-year-old surrogate mother with uterine didelphys who experienced a twin pregnancy. She underwent a caesarean section due to preterm prelabour rupture of fetal membranes. This case highlights the challenges associated with uterine didelphys in complex pregnancies.
Uterine didelphys can lead to serious complications during pregnancy, affecting both the mother and the developing foetuses. Recognising and managing these risks is vital for improving pregnancy outcomes, especially in complex situations like surrogate or twin pregnancies, ensuring better health for mothers and babies.

Didelphic uterus is one of the congenital anomalies of the female genital tract (others include septate, bicornuate and unicornuate uterus). They usually arise when there are abnormalities of formation, fusion or resorption of the mullerian ducts. The significance of didelphic uterus is in its ability to predispose a pregnant mother to increased risk of preterm birth, prematurity, abnormal fetal lie and presentation, intrauterine fetal growth restriction, increased risk of operative delivery, low birth weight and its attendant perinatal morbidity. We present a 30-year-old surrogate mother who had caesarean section on account of preterm prelabour rupture of fetal membranes.
