Rokitansky's syndrome in association with reno-ureteral abnormalities. Teratogenic period.
A case of Rokitansky's syndrome in association with complete duplication of the right upper urinary tract is presented. From a chronological point of view, the morphogenetic processes of the urinary and genital tract are analyzed. It is supposed that the congenital abnormality is produced between the 30th and 37th day of gestation, because reno-ureteral duplication appears at 30-32 days and involution of the Müllerian structures appears at 37 days.
