title: Sexual infantilism in a normal karotypic female related to ovarian agenesis associated with Müllerian agenesis--Case report.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To describe an unusual case of Müllerian agenesis associated with gonadal agenesis and thus sexual infantilism.
  
  
  METHODS
  Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and sonography were performed and MRI of the kidneys. Pelvic sonography and serum follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) were also obtained.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The only pelvic organ that this 15-year-old girl had was the distal portion of the vaginal canal. The kidneys were normal.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  This case suggests that at least in some cases some possible viral damaging process may lead to damage to both the ovaries and the Müllerian system. If there was a problem with the anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), the kidney may be affected. Furthermore, AMH has nothing to do with the ovaries and a chance association of these two entities though possible, seems less likely than a common factor causing both problems.
