Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich Syndrome on Imaging: Case Report
Received Date: Sep 04, 2023 / Published Date: Sep 30, 2023
Abstract
Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich Syndrome is a rare congenital anomaly affecting the urogenital tract, specifically involving the Mullerian ducts and mesophrenic ducts. It is characterized by a triad of uterine didelphys with a blocked hemivagina and the absence of a kidney on the same side.
Symptoms typically manifest following menarche, presenting as pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, and the development of a pelvic mass. In rare cases, it may lead to primary infertility in later years.
Diagnosis of this condition is typically accomplished through ultrasound and MRI imaging techniques.
In this case report, we present the clinical scenario of a 13-year-old patient who had experienced her third menstrual cycle and presented with pelvic pain lasting for a week.
