Typical and atypical pelvic MRI characteristics of Mayer-Rokitansky-K üster-Hauser syndrome: a comprehensive analysis of 201 patients

ConclusionMRKH patients typically display bilateral uterine rudiments combined with a fibrous band and normally located ovaries. The uterine rudiments are generally small with only one-layer differentiation, a subset of which might be large and exhibited other atypical presentations, including two- or three-layer differentiation or even hematometra. Abnormally located ovaries are not rare.Key Points• Morphologically, MRKH patients typically displayed bilateral uterine rudiments combined with a fibrous band.• Typically, the uterine rudiments (84.4%) were small and displayed only one-layer differentiation.• About 15.6% of rudiments showed atypical characteristics including two- or three-layer differentiation, even complicated with hematometra or hematosalpinx.
