A rare case of multiple leiomyomas on rudimentary uterus in a woman with Mayer Rokitansky Kuster Hauser (MRKH) syndrome: A challenging diagnosis and laparoscopic approach
Mayer Rokitansky Kuster Hauser (MRKH) syndrome is a congenital disorder involving reproductive, genitourinary, bone, and cardiac malformation. The incidence is 1 in 4000–5000 females livebirths. The phenotype is female 46 XX karyotype, normal secondary sexual characteristics, and normal functional o...

Sumario: | Mayer Rokitansky Kuster Hauser (MRKH) syndrome is a congenital disorder involving reproductive, genitourinary, bone, and cardiac malformation. The incidence is 1 in 4000–5000 females livebirths. The phenotype is female 46 XX karyotype, normal secondary sexual characteristics, and normal functional ovaries. The occurrence of leiomyoma in uterine remnant in MRKH syndrome is a very rare case, even though several cases have been reported. The diagnosis and management approach, in this case, is quite challenging. Here, we report a 38 years old female who represents multiple leiomyomas on the rudimentary uterus, then we did laparoscopic removal of the fibroids and adjacent rudimentary uterus. |
