Uterus didelphys is one of the rarest of the Mullerian duct anomalies and can lead to unique obstetric and gynecologic outcomes and considerations. This case describes a patient with known uterus didelphys and intact longitudinal vaginal septum who desired termination of pregnancy at 17 weeks gestation due to fetal anomaly. She underwent dilation and evacuation (D&E) under ultrasound guidance and the pregnancy was removed from the right-sided uterus. Preoperative mifepristone and misoprostol were used for cervical ripening. This case demonstrates that second trimester D&E can be safely performed on patients with uterus didelphys and is aided by the adjunctive use of prostaglandins, mifepristone, and ultrasound guidance to avoid intraoperative complications.
