A septum uterus is a form of a congenital malformation where the uterine cavity is partitioned by a longitudinal septum; the outside of the uterus has a normal typical shape. The wedge-like partition may involve only the superior part of the cavity resulting in an incomplete septum or a subseptate uterus, or less frequently the total length of the cavity (complete septum) and the cervix resulting in a double cervix. The septation may also continue caudally into the vagina resulting in a "double vagina".[1]

Can you have a wall splitting your uterus in half?
Yes you can, bicornuate is heart-shaped, and septate is shaped like a regular uterus on the outside, but has an extra wall on the inside. A uterine septum (or wall) occurs during prenatal development. The uterus starts as 2 separate tubes, the walls come together forming the uterine cavity in the center. When the tubes don't line up or fuse perfectly the uterine cavity ends up partitioned by a wall or septum. If the septum is right in the middle, the uterus may look heart shaped ღ on ultrasound. The wedge-like partition may involve only the upper part of the cavity resulting in an incomplete septum or a subseptate uterus, or less frequently the total length of the uterus, making two complete cavities.
