The close embryological proximity of the mullerian, wolffian and metanephric systems increases the potential for a common ipsilateral embryological error around the fourth week of gestation. Genital anomalies are four times as common in females as in males with unilateral renal agenesis. Uterine anomalies associated with congenital renal agenesis and skeletal abnormalities represent an uncommon pathology that often presents important diagnostic and therapeutic problem [1]. The Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome is an eponym often applied to individuals with mullerian duct anomalies in association with a solitary kidney. We present a rare variant where left sided renal agenesis was associated with a large ipsilateral ovarian cyst and a bicornuate uterus. The left sided cornua was not communicating with the cervix hence there was ipsilateral hemihematometra. We could not find a report of this particular triad inspite of an extensive search of literature. |
