Abstract
Introduction: Imperforate hymen is a rare local fusion anomaly of the female reproductive tract and diagnosis can be easily missed. Cyclic lower abdominal pain and amenorrhea are common symptoms in cases left untreated after menarche. Perineal pain may be an unusual presenting symptom of imperforate hymen. In order to avert complications related to delayed treatment, hymenotomy is considered effective management. Case Report: We herein describe a case of a 13-year-old adolescent girl with an imperforate hymen presenting with lower abdominal and perineal pain. The girl underwent and hymenotomy and postoperative period was uneventful. Perineal and pelvic pain relieved instantly after surgical treatment and during follow up her menstrual cycles were regular.
