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

We present this case of uterus didelphys with right sided haematometrocolpos due to obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal agenesis-Herlyn Werner Wunderlich syndrome. The condition was missed on ultrasound and diagnosed on plain CT scan abdomen and pelvis. This syndrome should be kept in mind...
