Laparoscopic myomectomy in a patient with Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome.
A 36-year-old woman had primary amenorrhea, pelvic pain, Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome, and an 8.5-cm, solid pelvic mass. The leiomyoma uteri was removed laparoscopically from the vestigial mullerian duct with secondary vaginopoiesis. The patient had a satisfactory clinical outcome. Finding of a leiomyoma in a patient with Rokitansky syndrome is rare. To our knowledge this is the first such case in which the myoma was removed by laparoscopy.
