Rudimentary horn pregnancy (RHP) is a special type of ectopic pregnancy and its pathophysiological basis is an abnormal fusion of the bilateral accessory mesonephric duct during the embryonic period. If sonographers lack experience to this disease, it is easily to be misdiagnosed in the early period, which often leads to rupture of the pregnant horn and life-threatening bleeding. Therefore, a high index of vigilance is required.
