“…These cases were treated successfully with excision of septum followed by drainage of hematocolpos/hematometra. This result corresponds well with the findings of Deligeoroglou et al, where 4 patients of transverse vaginal septum presented with hypogastric abdominal pain and were treated accordingly [9]. The second most common cause for abdominal pain turned out to be unicornuate uterus with non-communicating horn (2 cases).…”

Congenital anomalies of the female reproductive tract may involve the uterus, cervix, fallopian tubes, or vagina. Depending on the specific defect, a woman's obstetric and gynecologic health may be adversely affected. In the present series patients presenting in the outpatient department with diagnosed Mullerian abnormalities were classified into several categories based on their presenting complaints. These patients were offered proper judicious management and were followed up as required. After one year of study period it was clear that most of these patients (barring a few exceptions) were treated optimally and they could live a healthy lifestyle thereafter.

Background: The objectives of this study were to determine the etiologic causes of amenorrhea, the prevalence of mullerian anomalies as a cause of primary amenorrhea and the different varieties of mullerian anomalies causing primary amenorrhea. Methods: This study included all the women presenting with primary amenorrhea who presented to the department of obstetrics and gynecology, Sir T Hospital and Government Medical College, Bhavnagar from 1st January 2010 to 30th June 2012. Results: The causes of primary amenorrhea of our study due to obstructive anomalies were 37.72(n=5) and mullerian agenesis were 57.14% (n=8) and androgen insensitivity 7.14 (n=1). Conclusions: Mullerian agenesis is the most prevalent cause of primary amenorrhea in our study. [Int J Reprod Contracept Obstet Gynecol 2013; 2(3.000): 393-397

“…It occurs in any portion of the vagina and can be transverse, longitudinal, or oblique. The majority of vaginal septa are located in the upper and middle third of the vagina; and thicker septa usually are closer to the cervix [6]. Complete transverse vaginal septum cause primary amenorrhoea, haematomata, haematocolpos.…”
