Abstract
The hymen is a layer of mucosal membrane located at the vaginal opening, with squamous epithelium covering its outer and inner surfaces. In between these surfaces, it contains connective tissue, blood vessels, and nerve endings. During its development, abnormal cavity formation at the urogenital sinus will lead to various anomalies which include imperforate hymen, microperforate hymen, septate hymen, and cribriform hymen (Fig. 3.1)
