چکیده

disorder. At clinical examination, the patient demonstrated a development of secondary sexual characteristics compatible with her chronological age. At gynecological examination a grooved urethra with elevated edges was observed. Speculum examination was not performed. Transabdominal ultrasonography did not demonstrate the presence of uterus and ovaries in their habitual site, but the study was inconclusive because of technical difficulties. At magnetic resonance imaging, the uterus could not be visualized and the ovaries presented volume, signal and location with no abnormality. Also, the vaginal canal could not be visualized by such imaging method (Figure 1). Genetic evaluation revealed karyotype 46,XX, thus determining the diagnosis of Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome. The patient was submitted to surgical correction of the vagina (neovaginoplasty).
