Abstract:
Female genital tract anomalies are common (1 to 2% of the female population), and may lead to multiple clinical manifestations: amenorrhea, infertility, spontaneous repeated miscarriage, pelvic pain, endometriosis. They are caused by intra-uterine insults between weeks 6 and 18 of gestation. They are classified according to their embryologic origin. Imaging relies essentially on ultrasound and MRI, and indications for hysterosalpingography are less common. Imaging must classify the malformation and detect complications in order to assess the fertility prognosis and treat complications.
