“…However, maternal serum estradiol concentrations reach a fluctuating plateau at 20 weeks gestation, and there is a reasonable degree of correlation in hormone concentrations between the maternal and fetal circulations, all in good standing with the timeframe for VUF formation. Interestingly, complete cervico‐vaginal agenesis does not result in a VUF when tubal patency is present . We hypothesize that the fetal intrauterine pressure in the second half of gestation may be considerably increased.…”

“…Thanks to magnetic resonance followed by an explorative laparotomy, the patient was finally diagnosed, and the müllerian anomaly, consisting of the right hematosalpinx and bicornuate rudimentary uterine horns, was removed. As step two of the treatment, the McIndoe procedure for artificial vagina creation was performed (7). It is worth noting that there was an early onset of the hematosalpinx and hematometra in this case.…”
