| الوصف: | Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome (HWWS) is a rare congenital genitourinary abnormality defined by uterine didelphys, obstructed hemivagina, and ipsilateral urological anomalies. Accurate diagnosis and prompt commencement of therapy can be difficult owing to heterogeneous genitourinary malformation among different patients. This is a case report of a patient with rare HWWS with uterine didelphys, obstructed hemivagina, vagina-ureteral remnant fistula (Gartner's duct cyst), and ipsilateral kidney dysgenesis who complained of intermittent abdominal pain during menstruation. The right ureteral remnant of the patient was distinctive, with three portions. The upper section was connected to the right dysplastic kidney, the lower section formed the fistulous tract with the vagina and bladder, while the middle section communicated with Gartner's Duct Cyst, which merged with the vagina and opened to the posterior cavity of hemivagina. The lower section of the right ureter was excised and ligated during laparoscopic surgery, while the upper section was excised. The patient recovered after surgery. We presented this rare case and conducted a literature review to provide a more comprehensive understanding of HWWS. This could help gynecologists effectively reduce misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis, especially when combined with complicated urinary malformation. |
