Obstructed Hemivagina with Ipsilateral Renal Agenesis: A Challenging Case Report and a Management Flow Chart.
Journal of Clinical Medicine 2023 November 23
We present here a case of complex uterine anomaly-obstructed hemivagina with ipsilateral renal agenesis (OHVIRA), also known as Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome in a 13-year-old girl with a history of recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTI). In the emergency room, a trans-abdominal sonography revealed an ovarian cyst and renal agenesis, without any suspicion of vaginal obstruction. This led to a delay in the diagnosis of this uncommon anomaly. Finally, MRI findings confirmed the presence of OHVIRA syndrome. As the congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) are present in almost one third of cases associated with genital malformations, urologists should carefully screen patients with rUTI. The patient underwent simultaneous laparoscopy and vaginoscopy, which was in our opinion the most appropriate therapeutic decision. In this article, we are also going to discuss the role of laparoscopy in the management of OHVIRA syndrome, as well as other surgical techniques described in the literature.
