HERLYN-WERNER-WUNDERLICH SYNDROME-ROLE OF IMAGING IN TIMELY AND CORRECT DIAGNOSIS

2021 
We present this case of uterus didelphys with right sided haematometrocolpos due to obstructed hemivaginaand ipsilateral renal agenesis-Herlyn Werner Wunderlich syndrome. The condition was missed on ultrasoundand diagnosed on plain CT scan abdomen and pelvis. This syndrome should be kept in mind while dealing witha young female complaining of lower abdominal pain and a pelvic mass having unilateral renal agenesis and anipsilateral pelvic cystic lesion on ultrasound or other imaging modality. Timely diagnosis is important to avoidcomplications like pyocolpos and retrograde spilling of blood with consequent endometriosis. Imaging plays amajor role in a correct and timely diagnosis.
