- Abstract
- Rudimentary uterus with ipsilateral renal agenesis is a very rare mullerian duct malformation. The unicornuate uterus is a rare type of the anomalous uteri, which is caused by failure of development of one of the mullerian ducts. The most common clinical presentation is pelvic pain and dysmenorrhea shortly after menarche, in associated with the finding of a vaginal or pelvic mass. An appropriate and prompt diagnosis and treatment will prevent unnecessary procedures and offer relief of symptoms. We presented a rare case of a unicornuate uterus with a noncommunicating horn, and ipsilateral renal agenesis with a brief review of concerned literatures.
