Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome (MRKH) is a congenital disorder syndrome characterized by failure of the uterine and vaginal organs to develop normally. The prevalence of MRKH is estimated to occur in about 1 in 5000 of female live births. A 25-year-old female patient comes to a general obstetric and gynecological polyclinic with complaints of not being able to menstruate at all since birth. There is a history of vaginal discharge but it is neither viscous nor had an odor. On ultrasound examination, the structure of the uterus and ovaries was not found in a normal place. On follow up MRI examination showed agenesis of the uterus and proximal two-third of the vagina accompanied by abnormal positioning of both ovaries, thus supporting to atypical form of MRKHS. The patient is not given drug therapy, but she was planned to transplant the uterine organs. This case report suggests MRKH syndrome can be characterized by ectopic ovaries and a uterus that is not fully developed and can also be accompanied by agenesis of the vaginal organs. Pelvic ultrasound is the main modality chosen to be performed in patients with symptoms of primary amenorrhea. When pelvic organs cannot be visualized properly, it will be performed MRI examination. MRI examination is known to have sensitivity and specificity up to 100% in diagnosing MRKH syndrome. This case report describes a 25-year-old woman with primary amenorrhea with MRKH syndrome. MRI is a sensitive and specific examination to confirm the diagnosis.
迈耶-罗基坦斯基-库斯特-豪泽综合征(MRKH)是一种先天性疾病综合征,其特征是子宫和阴道器官发育异常。据估计,MRKH在每5000例女性活产中约有1例发生。一名25岁的女性患者来到一家综合妇产科门诊,主诉自出生以来一直无法月经来潮。有白带病史,但白带既不粘稠也无异味。超声检查未在正常位置发现子宫和卵巢结构。后续的MRI检查显示子宫和阴道近端三分之二发育不全,同时双侧卵巢位置异常,从而支持非典型形式的MRKHS。该患者未接受药物治疗,但计划进行子宫器官移植。本病例报告表明,MRKH综合征的特征可能是卵巢异位、子宫发育不全,还可能伴有阴道器官发育不全。盆腔超声是对原发性闭经患者进行检查的主要方式。当盆腔器官无法清晰显示时,将进行MRI检查。已知MRI检查在诊断MRKH综合征时的敏感性和特异性高达100%。本病例报告描述了一名患有MRKH综合征的原发性闭经25岁女性。MRI是确诊的一项敏感且特异的检查。
