摘要
Reproductive tract malformations are rare in general population but are commonly encountered in women with infertility and recurrent pregnancy loss. Obstructive anomalies present around menarche causing extreme pain and adversely affecting the life of the young women. The clinical signs, symptoms and reproductive problems depend on the anatomic distortions, which may range from congenital absence of the vagina to complex defects in the lateral and vertical fusion of the Müllerian duct system. Identification of symptoms and timely diagnosis are an important key to the management of these defects. Although MRI being gold standard in delineating uterine anatomy, recent advances in imaging technology, specifically 3-dimensional ultrasound, achieve accurate diagnosis. Surgical management depend on the type of anomaly, its complexity and the proper embryological interpretation of the anomaly and involves multiple specialties; thus, patients should be referred to centres with experience in the treatment of complex genital malformations. © 2017, Federation of Obstetric & Gynecological Societies of India.
