Abstract

Cervical agenesis or dysgenesis is a rare Mullerian anomaly that is usually associated with vaginal aplasia. A literature review revealed reports of 83 cases including ours, of which 57 (68.6%) presented with obstruction of the external OS, 11 (13.2%) had the cervix replaced by a fibrous cord and 5 (6.02%) had a fragmented cervix. A total of 24 (28.9%) were managed by core and drilling technique (CDT), 16(19.2%) patients underwent uterovaginal anastomosis (UVA), 7(8.4%) underwent total abdominal hysterectomy preserving the ovaries and 5 (6.02%) were managed by cervical reconstruction. Unfortunately, 31 failed to return after their clinical and radiological diagnosis was confirmed. Early diagnosis and treatment are necessary to avoid long-term complications.
