Delayed Presentation of Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich Syndrome; A Rare Congenital Anomaly: A Case Report and literature Review

Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome (HWWs) is a rare müllerian abnormality resulting in varying presentation, especially after puberty. A baseline pelvic ultrasound scan can help in diagnosis. The quality of life for these patients can be improved by timely and adequate surgical care., who otherwise may suffer from prolonged ongoing symptoms and complications in the future due to these anatomical abnormalities. Background: Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich Syndrome (HWWs) is a rare congenital condition involving uterus didelphys, obstructed hemi-vagina, and ipsilateral renal agenesis due to abnormal development of ducts. Diagnosing Müllerian anomalies can be challenging due to varying symptoms. The case of delayed HWW s presentation in a patient is discussed, emphasizing the need for early referral to specialized care. Case: A 25-year-old woman with a history of recurrent UTIs as well as a single right kidney was diagnosed with Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich Syndrome (HWWs), a rare condition involving obstructed hemi-vagina, uterus didelphys and ipsilateral renal agenesis. Surgical intervention successfully was a suitable treatment for this condition, and the patient was referred to a urologist for further urinary symptoms management. Conclusion: Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome diagnosis is challenging, but early detection with pelvic ultrasound can aid in diagnosis; treatment involves resecting the hemivaginal septum.
