Abstract

We present a case of Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser Syndrome type II associated with fused pelvic kidneys diagnosed by MRI. While MRKH Syndrome is a well-recognized entity associated with various Mullerian structure malformations, we did not find any similar cases in our review of the literature associated specifically with fused pelvic kidney ectopy. A brief review of the syndrome and its main findings will be done by imaging.
