Abstract

Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome (HWWS) is a rare Müllerian duct anomaly characterized by double uterus (lot. Uterus didelphys), obstruction of one vagina (lot. Hemivagina), and ipsilateral renal agenesis. In a 13-year-old patient, HWWS was diagnosed based on complaints and instrumental examinations – ultrasound, computer tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging; the obstructed vagina was opened surgically.
