The detection of congenital uterine anomalies has increased because of heightened physician awareness and improved diagnostic modalities. The occurrence of a twin pregnancy occupying separate horns of a bicornuate uterus has been reported only sporadically in the literature. This is the first reported case resulting after in-vitro fertilization and embryo transfer.
