Ante-natal and Intra-partum management of a pregnancy in a patient with 
complete duplication of genital organs


Dr. Charles N. E. Mkocha is currently managing a patient who is 30 
weeks pregnant but with duplication of her genital organs, i.e.: double 
uteri, cervices, and vaginae with a thick vaginal septum confirmed by 
speculum and ultrasound examinations. The patient has had 3 recurrent 
abortions in the first trimester and no living children. She is also 
from a low income social economic status and can not afford the type of 
care and monitoring and subsequent management of this pregnancy.

Charles is seeking information and assistance in the management of this 
case. It is hoped that an institution or hospital in Africa and or 
elsewhere may be interested in assisting in the management of this pa-
tient. Currently the patient is in Quting in Lesotho, Southern Africa 
and is due for the next check up on 7th January 1998.

Please indicate urgently your willingness to assist. The expected cost 
of management in a hospital until and including delivery is estimated 
at South African Rands 50,000. i.e. approximately  US $10,638. 

I will be happy to receive all messages for Dr. C. Mkocha by e-mail.
