The Spectrum of Imaging Appearances of M?llerian Duct Anomalies: Focus on MR Imaging
Abstract: This study was designed with an aim to determine diagnostic efficiency of MRI in classification of sub-types of mullerian duct anomalies. I have studied 30 cases of diverse sub types of mullerian duct anomalies and the corresponding MRI findings. In this retrospective study, patients (n = 30) with clinical suspicion and diagnosed (ultrasound / HSG) of mullerian duct anomalies were referred to department of radiology and examined with MRI. Axial, sagittal, coronal T2 and axial T1 -weighted images were acquired. MRI based diagnosis was made and patients were grouped according to the ASRM classification system. MRI has emerged as the universally accepted standard in the imaging evaluation of Mullerian duct anomalies. Accuracies of up to 100% in the evaluation of Mullerian duct anomalies have been reported. MRI provides excellent delineation of both internal and external uterine anatomy. Most common anomaly in total study sample is hypo-plastic uterus (30%). MRI revealed seven patients with mullerian agenesis (23%), nine patients were diagnosed with hypoplastic uterus (30%), two patients with didelphys uterus (7%), three patients with bicornuate uterus (10%) and eight patients with septate uterus (26%) and one patient with arcuate uterus (4%).
