DESIGN: Descriptive case report. SETTING: A foundation trust in the United Kingdom. MATERIALS AND METHOD(S): A patient known to have VATER/VACTERL syndrome was diagnosed with a hematometra of a noncommunicating uterine horn and hematosalpinx. She underwent multidisciplinary surgery to remove the functioning uterine horn, after which she had a full recovery. CONCLUSION(S): This case documents the association of VATER/VACTERL syndrome with a unicornuate uterus and noncommunicating horn.
