ZKTB The Role of Ultrasound in the Diagnosis of Hydrometrocolpos due to Vaginal Atresia; Case Report

Giriş: Neonatal hidrometrokolpos kadın üreme yollarının gelişim defektine bağlı gelişen nadir bir anomalisidir. Yenidoğanda genellikle abdominal kitle, nadiren hidroüreteronefroz ile presente olur. Olgu: Bu yazıda 3 günlük yenidoğanda yüksek va- jinal atreziye bağlı gelişen dev hidrometrokolpos ve eşlik eden bilateral hidroüreteronefrozun sonogra- fik bulgularını sunduk. Sonuç: Ultrason abdominal kitlenin orijini ve komplikasyonlarını ortaya koyabilen önemli bir ta- nısal modalitedir.

due to Vaginal Atresia; Case Report Vajinal Atrezi Nedeniyle Gelişen Hidrometrokolpos Tanısında Ultrasonun Rolü; Olgu Sunumu

Newborn may present with abdominal mass and rarely with hydroureteroneph- rosis. Case: We reported sonographic features of a huge hydrometrocolpos secondary to high vaginal atresia concomitant with bilaterally hydroureteronephro- sis in a 3-day-old girl. Conclusion: Ultrasonography is essential diagnos- tic modality which brings out nature of abdominal mass and its complications.
