Summary: OHVIRA (Obstructed Hemi Vagina with Ipsilateral Renal Agenesis) or Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich Syndrome is a rare congenital disease, caused by a Mullerian anomaly, characterized by a didelphys uterus, obstruction of the hemivagina and ipsilateral renal agenesis. It usually presents after menarche with progressive abdominal pain and pelvic mass secondary to hematocolpus. When the hemivagina obstruction is incomplete, the diagnosis may be delayed by the reduction of the severity of symptoms and possible regularity of the menstrual cycle. Rarely, it presents in the adult age as the cause of primary infertility. We describe a case of a 15-year-old girl with prenatal diagnosis of right renal agenesis who

Apresenta-se habitualmente após a menarca com dor abdominal progressiva e tumefação pélvica secundárias a hematocolpus. Quando a obstrução da hemivagina não é completa o diagnóstico pode ser atrasado pela diminuição da gravidade dos sintomas e possível regularidade do ciclo menstrual. Raramente, surge na idade adulta como causa de infertilidade primária. É descrito um caso de uma adolescente de 15 anos, com diagnóstico pré-natal de agenésia renal direita com queixas de dor abdominal recorrente associada a tumefação abdomino-pélvica.Sociedade Portuguesa de Pediatria2019-07-15info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.25754/pjp.2019.14892eng2184-44532184-3333Antunes, JoanaBarros, MarianaEzequiel, MartaCalado, RitaMartins, Mafaldainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2024-05-06T15:12:14Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/14892Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T14:38:36.568931Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
