Sonographic diagnosis and classification of anomalies of the female genital tract
S. Malini, C. Valdes and L. R. Malinak
A retrospective study of 68 female patients with sonographic diagnoses of
genital tract anomalies was done. Corroboration by hysterosalpingography
and/or surgery was available in 47 cases (69 per cent) and by visualization
of two cervices on physical examination in three cases (4 per cent). Scan
results are categorized as diagnostic, confirmatory, and incorrect. The 50
patients were placed in the following proposed categories: segmental
mullerian agenesis (four cases); "peculiar appearing" uterus (three cases);
uterus didelphys (19 cases); bicornuate and septate uterus (22 cases);
obstructed lower with normal upper genital tract (two cases).
