PAIS, Ana Sofia et al. When and how to perform surgical treatment for uterine septum?. Acta Obstet Ginecol Port [online]. 2021, vol.15, n.3, pp.259-263.  Epub 30-Sep-2021. ISSN 1646-5830.

Uterine septum is the most common uterine anomaly and is more prevalent in women with infertility and a history of recurrent miscarriage. There is no consensus on what the indications for treatment are, nor the specific surgical approach to be used. It is reasonable to consider incision of the septum in a patient with infertility, history of spontaneous abortion or adverse obstetric outcomes, but no solid published evidence supports surgical treatment in asymptomatic women. The decision on therapy must be shared with the patient, explaining the potential risks and benefits. The surgical technique must be chosen regarding the surgeon’s experience.
