This document discusses congenital anomalies of the female reproductive system. It defines congenital anomaly as any physical abnormality present at birth. Causes may include hormones, genetics, or teratogens. Anomalies can occur externally in structures like the vulva or internally in organs. Examples provided include imperforate hymen, bicornuate uterus, and Müllerian anomalies. Diagnostic tools include hysterosalpingogram, ultrasound, and MRI. Treatment depends on the anomaly but may involve non-invasive measures like dilators or invasive surgery like hysteroscopy or laparoscopy.

4. What is congenital anomaly?
Congenital anomaly is the medical term suffering to any physical
abnormality of the male and female internal or external genitalia
present at birth

5. Causes:
• Unknown
• Hormone deficiency and excessive
• Teratogenic effect
• Genetic determination

6. • Congenital anomaly in external genital
• Congenital anomaly in internal genital
OBJECTIVE

7. Congenital anomaly
of vulva

8. LABIAL HYPOPLASIA
one or both labia may not develop normally. This may be
evident in childhood or may only be evident through pubertal
development as one side develops normally and the other side
is noted to be smaller or absent. The labia function as fat pads
and specifically function as protection from trauma

9. LABIAL HYPERPLASIA
For unclear reasons, one or both labia may grow to larger sizes.
Enlargement of the labia can result in irritation, chronic infections,
pain, interference with sexual activity

10. congenital Anomaly in
hymen

11. IMPERFORATE HYMEN
1. Hymen is membrane that surrounding or over opening of vagina
2. It is a circular form of tissue which has a hole within the centre
3. When there is no whole or opening of hymen is called imperforate
hymen

12. MICROPERFORATE HYMEN
When thin membrane almost completely cover with only a small hole in
the middle making it difficult menstrual blood flow out

13. SEPTATE HYMEN
• It is caused when hymen membrane have extra tissue in the middle ,
cause two small vaginal opening.
• It does not surgical intervention, it typically torn during sexual
intercourse with possible side effect including pain, bleeding
,discomfort.

15. Congenital anomaly
in vagina

16. Transverse vaginal septum
• It is the condition when wall
of the tissue running
horizontally across the vagina
, the wall known as septum.
Create a blockage in the
vagina

17. Vertical or complete
vaginal septum
● It is a condition where a wall
of tissue runs vertically ups
and down the length or vagina
divided into 2 cavities
● There is no symptom, you
should experience pain in

18. Vaginal agenesis
• It is a rare disorder
• When vagina does not
develop and the womb
(uterus) may only develop
partially or not at all

19. congenital anomaly
in cervix

20. Cervix agenesis
• The women is born without cervix.
• The doctor suggest medication to
control retrograde menstruation
the backward of movement of
menstrual fluid

21. cervical duplication
• When a women is born
with two cervix
• Symptoms like abnormal
bleeding before periods,
infertility issues

22. Congenital anomaly
in fallopian tube

23. FALLOPIAN TUBE
AGENESIS
1. the absence of one or
both fallopian tubes.
2. Fallopian tube agenesis
can cause infertility in
women when both the

24. Congenital anomaly
in ovary

25. Ovarian dysgenesis
• the complete or nearly complete absence of ovarian tissue in
females
• alterations to genetic information needed for ovarian
development

26. Ovarian agenesis
1. Congenital absence of ovary
is called ovarian agenesis
2. It may be broadly classified
as:
• unilateral ovarian
agenesis
• bilateral ovarian agenesis

27. Congenital anomaly
of uterus

28. Septate uterus
• When uterus is complete or partial
separate between 2 parts.
• septate uterus is when your uterus is
divided into two parts by a membrane
called the septum.
• This condition may not required
treatment unless there is recurrent
miscarriage

29. Bicornuate uterus
● A bicornuate uterus is a rare
congenital condition that affects
the shape of the uterus.
● It is also known as a heart-shaped
uterus because it has two cavities
or horns instead of one.

30. Arcuate uterus
• where the uterine cavity displays a
concave contour towards the fundus.
Normally the uterine cavity is straight
or convex towards the fundus on
anterior-posterior imaging, but in the
arcuate uterus the myometrium of
the fundus dips into the cavity and
may form a small septation. The
distinction between an arcuate
uterus and a septate uterus is not
standardized.

31. Unicornuate uterus
• In which the uterus that is only
develop half side
• It has only one fallopian tube
instead of two

32. didelphys
• When women was born with
2 uterine body, where the
uterus is present as a paired
organ

33. Clinical picture
• Inability to empty the bladder
• Breast do not grow
• Difficulty in menses.
• Repeated problems of pre-term or miscarriage.
• Monthly cramps or pain without menstruation
• Pain with intercourse

34. Diagnostic evaluation
• Hysterosalpingogram
• 3d ultrasonography
• MRI

35. hysterosonography
During hysterosonography a
care provider uses a thin,
flexible tube (catheter) to inject
salt water (saline) into the
hollow part of the uterus. An
ultrasound probe gets images
of the inside of the uterus to
check for anything unusual.

36. TREATMENT
Invasive surgery
1. laparoscopy surgery
2. Hysteroscopy surgery-This involves inserting a thin, flexible,
lighted telescope (hysteroscope) through the vagina and cervix into
the uterus.
non invasive surgery
1. Vaginal dilator -) is an instrument used to gently stretch the vagina

37. 1. Dilator 2. Hysteroscopy surgery
