Abstract

Aplasia of the vagina and uterus (Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome) is a malformation characterized by congenital absence of the uterus (usually presented by two muscular rudiments, but other variants can also be encountered: asymmetric muscular mounds, complete absence of rudiments, etc.), and vagina, normally functioning ovaries, female phenotype and karyotype (46,XX), and is often accompanied by other congenital anomalies (skeletal, urinary, digestive) (Figures 1-4). Figure 2 presents a laparoscopic view of aplasia of uterus and vagina: absence of uterine rudiments. Laparoscopic view of aplasia of uterus and vagina with symmetric uterine rudiments is shown on Figure 3, and a laparoscopic view of aplasia of uterus and vagina with asymmetric uterine rudiments is presented on Figure 4.
