case_images: During these ED encounters, the rudimentary horn was read as a fibroid with central necrosis on ultrasound (Figure 2(a)), and anatomy was reported to not be well visualized on CT scan. Ultimately, with her pain continuing to persist, her general gynecologist ordered an outpatient MRI, which showed a unicornuate uterus with an 8 cm noncommunicating rudimentary right horn (Figures 2(b) and 2(c)).
