Pregnancy following repair of a congenital atresia of the uterine cervix and upper vagina

B Welker et al. Arch Gynecol Obstet. 1988.

Abstract

A case of congenital atresia of the uterine cervix combined with atresia of the upper vagina and without any other anomalies is reported. Direct anastomosis of cervix and vagina resulted in a restoration of reproductive function. The patient conceived 6 years afterward and delivered a healthy boy by cesarean section at 31 weeks of gestation. Therapeutic reconstructing options for this kind of genital tract malformation with respect to reproductive function are discussed.
