This technique of lowering the retracted upper eyelid is effective even in severe cases of eyelid retraction. Minimal complications were encountered, and upper eyelid contours were well preserved. The use of hot-wire cautery dissection proved useful in shortening operative time.
The imperforated hymen is one of the commonest genital tract malformations usually present with cyclic abdominal pain and an obstructive pelvic mass at post-pubertal age. The unusual presentations are delayed menarche with obstructive symptoms rarely acute retention of urine, tenesmus, and constipation. We report an unusual case of 12- year old girl with a huge mass in the lower abdomen examination revealed imperforate hymen at early pubertal age.
Further investigation of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) confirmed hematocolpometra. Then, she underwent simple hymenotomy and drainage of collected menstrual blood from the genital tract. She recovered well during the postoperative periods. We conformed normal menstrual flow at her first follow-up. In conclusion, Imperforate hymen at peripubertal age with an unusual huge abdominopelvic mass concerns further imaging to assure the best outcome.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
