Study of mullerian duct anomalies using magnetic resonance imaging technique in a tertiary care hospital of Assam

Journal Title: Indian Journal of Clinical Anatomy and Physiology - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 4

Abstract

Background: Mullerian duct anomalies (MDA) consist of a set of structural malformations resulting from abnormal development of the paramesonephric or Mullerian ducts. Mullerian duct is the embryonic structure that develops into the female reproductive tract, including the oviduct, uterus, cervix and upper vagina. The most widely accepted classification system of different mullerian anomalies was established by the American Fertility Society in 1988. This classification chart divides anomalies into seven classes: class I to class VII. Aim: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) study of the mullerian duct anomalies with different age groups, religions, different classes established by American Fertility Society and associated other anomalies. Materials and Methods: Patients with positive history coming to Radiology Department of Guwahati Medical College and Hospital, Guwahati were included in the study. After preliminary suspected ultrasonography (USG), MRI was done for all the cases.
