摘要
INTRODUCTION: Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome (HWWS), also known as OHVIRA syndrome, is a rare congenital abnormality of Mullerian duct development characterized by uterus didelphys, unilateral blind hemivagina, and ipsilateral renal agenesis. PRESENTATION OF CASE: In this report, the authors present the case of a 12-year-old patient presenting with progressive and disabling abdominal pain after the onset of menarche diagnosed with HWWS, describe the various diagnostic modalities and treatment options available, along with a current review of the literature. DISCUSSION: With normal external genitalia, HWWS is usually asymptomatic until menarche when patients present with worsening abdominal pain during menses and a palpable pelvic or abdominal mass. Untreated, HWWS may lead to a number of complications including endometriosis, infertility, and spontaneous abortion. CONCLUSION: Greater awareness of HWWS will lead to earlier detection and is the key to alleviating patient suffering and avoiding potentially severe complications. (C) 2019 The Authors.
