Misdiagnosed Roberts Uterus Leading to Surgical Misadventures.

BACKGROUND

Developmental anomalies of the Müllerian duct system are some of the most intriguing and challenging disorders that gynecologists and surgeons encounter in their practice.

CASE: We report on a 16-year-old adolescent girl with regular menstrual cycles, who presented with recurrent cyclical abdominal pain for which she had undergone 2 unsuccessful surgeries. When correctly diagnosed with the rare condition of "Robert's uterus," she underwent successful metroplasty and is completely asymptomatic at 2-year follow-up.

SUMMARY AND

CONCLUSION

To avoid inappropriate management, gynecologists and surgeons should be aware of this rare entity while evaluating cases of severe dysmenorrhoea in previously normal menstruating young girls.
