Although  transvaginal  ultrasonographic  examinations  may  provide

more  detail  than  transabdominal  ultrasonography,  particularly  for

in ammatory  masses,  a  transvaginal  examination  may  not  be  well

tolerated by adolescents.

For cases in which the ultrasonographic examination is inconclusive, CT

or MRI may be helpful.

An accurate preoperative assessment of anatomy is critical, particularly

in cases of uterovaginal malformations.

MRI can be useful for evaluating this group of rare anomalies.

An  unexpected  nding  of  a  complex  uterine  or  vaginal  anomaly

requires careful surgical planning and decision making
