Incomplete fusion of the mullerian ducts results in uterine malformation like uterus didelphus, uterus bicornis bicollis, uterus bicornis unicollis, uterus subseptate, uterus arcuate, and uterus uni...

Uterus bicornis bicollis, imperforate hemivagina and ipsilateral renal agenesis: case report and literature review.

We present a case of a patient with Uterus bicornis bicollis, imperforate hemivagina and ipsilateral renal agenesis. This group of congenital malformations is often asymptomatic until puberty, when it presents as cyclic dysmenorrhoea, leucorrhoea or a pelvic mass. Magnetic resonance imaging is becoming the preferred modality for delineation of uterine malformations. When congenital abnormalitie...
