ABSTRACT Background: Müllerian duct anomalies include a complex spectrum of anatomical anomalies that arise from deviations during the normal development of the Müllerian ducts. In paediatrics, such defects cannot present with any clinical symptoms before puberty, yet, they can also have obstructive symptoms or a mass effect due to presence of a non communicating rudimentary horn or transverse vaginal septum. At the beginning of puberty, girls with these anomalies might have primary amenorrhea, pelvic pain or endometriosis. Müllerian duct anomalies have also associated with a variety of other congenital abnormalities. Aim of the work: To review MRI features of Mullerian Duct Anomalies and classify them according to ASRM and ESHRE-ESGE classifications. Patients and Methods: The study was a case series study that included 37 patients who underwent pelvic MRI at Radiology Department “Ain Shams University hospitals” in Cairo, Egypt. Results: In our study, Hypoplastic, Agenesis and Didelphysis found to have the same ratio of (21.6%), while Bicornuate uterus was(13.5%), septate (8.1%), unicornuate and transverse vaginal septum all were of (5.4%) incidence and the least common was arcuate uterus with (2.7%) incidence. | ||||
