Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) Syndrome is a Müllerian abnormality, characterized by the absence of the vagina, associated with abnormal or absent uterus and the presence of apparently normal tubes and ovaries. Physical growth development and secondary sexual characters as well as the external genitalia are also normal. These patients usually present with primary amenorrhea. Here we report a case of 20-year-old woman with primary amenorrhea due to Müllerian agenesis presented with rectovaginal fistula following coital injury. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case reported in the literature with this rare presentation. |
