“…Its accuracy in classifying uterine anomalies is reported to be 96% to 100%, compared to 85% to 92% for transvaginal ultrasound and 6% to 55% for HSG [15]. It can define the fundal contour and visualize the uterus in different planes.…”

“…Moreover, MRI gives excellent soft-tissue differentiation, therefore reliably distinguishing the endometrium from the myometrium [16]. Evaluation of Fallopian tubes and detection of intrauterine adhesions or mild endometriosis is difficult on MRI [15]. Therefore, hysteroscopy and laparoscopy should be considered for complete evaluation of the malformation and its possible complications.…”

Didelphic uterus with blind hemivagina and ipsilateral renal anomaly is a rare congenital malformation. The pathogenesis of this syndrome and its embryologic origin are still the subject of discussion. Due to the variable clinical picture and low index of suspicion, diagnosis is often delayed or inaccurate. Conservative surgical treatmentexcision of the obstructing vaginal septum and marsupialization of the blind hemivagina-is considered the most appropriate treatment. This report describes the case of a 16-year-old girl with didelphic uterus and double vagina, with obstruction of the left hemivagina. The patient was also diagnosed with left renal dysplasia and ipsilateral ureter communication with the obstructed vagina. Following various examinations and left uretero-nephrectomy, the patient was effectively treated with resection of the vaginal septum.

Whereas most doctors recommend removal of a uterine septum, they generally concur that it is better not to operate on a uterus didelphys.…”

We report a case of 21 Yrs old female patient referred to the radiology department at Shree Birndra Hospital, to investigate primary infertility. She underwent hysterosalpingogram, both transabdominal & transvaginal ultrasound and MRI of the pelvis. The final diagnosis was Uterus Didelphys, which is a type of lateral fusion disorder of mullerian ducts. According to the American Fertility Society Classification of Mullerian Anomalies, Uterus Didelphys is a class III anomaly.
