Abstract
- Three-dimensional ultrsonography has been applied to diagnose mullerian anomalies. However, in Korea, no such case has been reported in literatures. An adolescent female was evaluated for dysmenorrhea, and a hematocolpos was found at private clinic. We performed three-dimensional ultrsonography and found uterus didelphys by confirming seperated uterine fundi and cervices. Abscence of right kidney was also found by ultrsonography. The diagnosis of Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome was made and marsupialization of the right hemivagina was performed, with relief of symptoms.
