Abstract
-
The association of uterus didelphys with obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal agenesis is rare anomaly. It is caused by failure in the fusion of the caudal portion of the M llerian duct, secondary to Wolffian duct anomaly. We report 4 cases of uterus didelphys with an obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal agenesis. All 4 cases are diagnosed by ultrasonogram, IVU, CT and MRI findings and confirmed by surgery or diagnostic laparoscopy and vaginal examination.
