Robert's uterus or asymmetric septate uterus is a rare malformation. It presents with two cavities, one of which is blind. The authors report an original case: the blind cavity, on the right side of the septum, contained retained secretions. The embryologic and physiopathologic mechanism of this anomaly still are to be discussed.
