“…Class VI anomalies are arcuate uteruses that represent near complete resorption of the midline septum. Class VII anomalies are variable and result from in utero diethylstilbestrol exposure [2][3][4][5]. The prevalence of Mullerian duct anomalies (MDAs) is 0.16%-10%, and the most common type is the septate uterus (55%) [5].…”

Uterus didelphys with obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal agenesis is a rare and specific entity referred to as Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome. It usually presents after menarche with remittent pelvic pain and a palpable pelvic mass due to hematocolpos. It rarely presents with primary infertility in early adulthood. In this report, a case of Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome with primary infertility in a young woman is described with MR imaging findings.

“…Uterus didelphys is associated with unilateral renal agenesis and hematocolpos of one hemivagina [ 19 ]. Uterus didelphys means presence of two separate uteruses and cervixes, usually accompanied by vaginal septum with two hemivaginas, resulted from complete absence of fusion of the Müllerian ducts.…”

OHVIRA or Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by uterine anomaly with obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal anomaly. We present a case of 16 year female who presented with cyclical lower abdominal pain. Ultrasonography and computed tomography in this patient revealed classic triad of findings. Our case is significant as the diagnosis was made at an earlier stage of the disease before development of gross obstruction and hematometrocolpos.

Uterus didelphys associated with obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal agenesis: MR findings in seven cases

Abstract: MR can do much for the early diagnosis and the prevention against further complications of this condition because it can demonstrate the müllerian duct anomaly complicated with obstructed hemivagina in detail and even ipsilateral renal agenesis.
