Popis: Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome is a congenital malformation of vertical fusion defect of mullerian system characterized by an absence of the vagina associated with a variable abnormality of the uterus and the urinary tract but functional ovaries. We are reporting 21 years primary ammenorrhea case. Clinically it was diagnosed as Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome, which was confirmed, by sonography and laparoscopy. She was treated with Mcindoe technique. Counseling before the surgery was done followed by rehabilitation as both of them play pivotal role in such treatment. Counseling and rehabilitation after the vaginoplasty is equally important.
