“…The JZ is functionally important in reproduction and ontogenetically related to the endometrium (61,63,65). Although its diagnostic accuracy in the management of congenital anomalies is not yet fully elucidated, it seems to be an extremely useful tool, especially in cases of obstructive or nonobstructive vaginal and/or cervical aplasia or dysplasia (8,11,24,25,(70)(71)(72)(73)(74)(75)(76)(77). All these improvements, together with advances in the field of endoscopy (e.g., office hysteroscopy, hydrolaparoscopy, better imaging in laparoscopy), greatly increase our efficacy for an accurate, clear, and detailed estimation of the anatomy of the female genital system (78)(79)(80)(81).…”

“…3,6,9,17,19,20 , which are not routinely indicated in our setting.In those with imperforate hymen, their condition remained unnoticed until after menarche when menstrual flow was obstructed and they presented with haematometra and haematocolpos. Imperforate hymen maybe excised before menarche if it is diagnosed or when hydrocolpos or mucocolpos develops 3,4 . The cases of imperforate hymen (36.84%) presented at younger ages than other congenital genital tract anomalies.…”

“…Congenital abnormalities of the female reproductive tract can be caused by a genetic error or by a teratologic event during embryonic development 3 . Minor abnormalities may be of little consequence, but major abnormalities may lead to severe impairment of menstrual and reproductive functions 3,4 . Failure of development or fusion of the sino-vaginal bulbs results in abnormalities of the vagina such as transverse vaginal septum, vaginal atresia and vaginal agenesis 1,5 .…”

Objective: To ascertain the types of adolescent female genital tract congenital anomalies and their management in the Tamale Teaching Hospital in Northern Ghana.Methods: A cross-sectional study of adolescent female genital tract congenital anomalies that were managed at the Tamale Teaching Hospital from 1st January 2010 to 31st December 2012. Results: There were 19 cases of adolescent female genital tract congenital anomalies during the study period. The commonest female genital tract congenital anomaly was imperforate hymen 7(36.84%). Other congenital anomalies included transverse vaginalseptum 4(21.05%), vaginal atresia 2(10.53%), vaginal agenesis 4(21.05%), didelphus uterus 1(5.26)% andbicornuate uterus 1(5.26%). The management of the adolescent female genital tract congenital anomalies included surgical procedures in 14 (73.68%), dilation of vaginal pouch, counseling and psychological support in 6 (31.57%).Conclusion: While in resource limited settings, initial workup and management of adolescent female genital tract congenital anomalies may be done without sophisticated equipment, management of more complex cases are usually more challenging requiringreferral to more appropriately staffed and equipped centres.

“…L'échographie réalisée par voie sus-pubienne permet le diag- l'IRM peut évaluer la rétention menstruelle d'amont. Elle permet surtout, par une vision globale du pelvis, d'éliminer une malformation urogénitale associée [12]. Le traitement classique de l'imperforation hyménéale est l'hyménectomie chirurgicale.…”

ObservationUne jeune fille âgée de 12 ans, sans antécédent pathologique particulier, consulte en urgence pour des douleurs hypogastriques, augmentant progressivement d'intensité depuis dix jours accompagnées de nausées et de vomissements d'apparition récente. La patiente présente par ailleurs un retard mental, ce qui rend l'interrogatoire difficile. L'examen général retrouve une patiente consciente, en assez bon état général, apyrétique, très agitée avec des conjonctives légèrement décolorées. L'examen abdominal trouve une volumineuse masse abdominopelvienne de consistance ferme, ainsi qu'une défense pelvienne. Le bilan biologique met en évidence une insuffisance rénale avec une urée sanguine à 1,1 g/L et une créatininémie à 20 mg/L. Une échographie abdominopelvienne est réalisée ( fig. 1 et 2).Quel est votre diagnostic ? Figure 1. Échographie sus-pubienne abdominopelvienne.Figure 2. Échographie abdominopelvienne.
