A bicornuate uterus is associated with increased adverse reproductive outcomes. Rotation of the gravid uterus is a normal finding in the third trimester of pregnancy. However, a pathologic rotation of the uterus beyond 45 degrees or torsion of the entire uterus is rarely Seen in obstetrical practice.
