Note that the distended bladder makes the uterus retroverted. 38 GYNECOLOGICAL PATHOLOGY Departures from the normal form, Malformations, are rare. Theuterus may be rudimentary (fig. 24), a mere baud of fibrous tissues onthe posterior aspect of the bladder; and in this case the peritoneum formsone pouch between the bladder and rectum. While the fully formed uterusis mesial and single, developmentally it is double, being produced by thecoalescence of the ducts of Muller.
