Abstract
Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome is a rare congenital disorder marked by the absence of the uterus and upper two-thirds of the vagina in women with normal secondary sexual characteristics. We present the case of a 35-year-old woman with primary amenorrhea, where pelvic MRI played a crucial role in diagnosing MRKH syndrome by revealing a rudimentary uterus and normal ovaries. Imaging, particularly MRI, is essential for accurate diagnosis and assessment of associated abnormalities, ensuring a comprehensive evaluation of this condition.
