Abstract
A case of imperforate hymen causing hydrohematometrocolpos is presented. The patient was a 21-year-old female, complaining lower abdominal pain for every 2 or 3 months (menstrual molimen) since the age of 18. Pelvic examination revealed a bulging, closed hymen. Ultrasonography and CT scan showed distended cavity of vagina and uterus (hydrohematometrocolpos) and no other anomalies were found in urogenital organs.
The closed hymen was excised circularly and the bloody fluid was drainaged. Posto-perative course was uneventful and hormonal response of the endometrium was confirmed.
