A septate uterus is a congenital Müllerian anomaly that may result in adverse reproductive outcomes such as infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, or preterm delivery. The septate uterus is the most common Müllerian anomaly encountered in clinical practice, although many patients with a septate uterus are asymptomatic. Multiple definitions of what constitutes a septate uterus complicate diagnosis and management decisions. While the standard therapeutic intervention for symptomatic uterine septa is hysteroscopic septal resection, the current evidence that such intervention improves reproductive outcomes is equivocal. The activity reviews the pathogenesis, evaluation, and management of the symptomatic septate uterus and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in improving outcomes for patients with this commonly encountered anomaly.
