Abstract

Background. Currently, there is not enough evidence to choose surgical tactics for patients with genital malformations. The absence of a normally developed uterus or the presence of rudimentary uterine horns and a rudimentary cord does not rule out the development of the most common benign tumor of the female reproductive system, namely uterine fibroids. Case report. This paper describes a clinical case of a patient with uterine and vaginal aplasia concurrent with fibroids. It presents examination results, a differential diagnosis process, intraoperative photos and morphological data on distant masses. Conclusion. Using this clinical case as an example, it can be stated that the volume of surgical intervention, namely, removal of uterine rudimentary horns, would be expanded in patients with aplasia of the uterus and vagina during the first colpopoiesis.
