This case report describes a 13-year-old girl presenting with recurrent pelvic pain and irregular menstruation, who was diagnosed with uterus didelphys, an obstructed hemivagina, and ipsilateral renal agenesis. Diagnostic imaging confirmed hematometra and hematocolpos on the right side, leading to surgical intervention involving vaginal septum excision and Strassman metroplasty. The patient became asymptomatic post-surgery, highlighting that this rare congenital anomaly should be considered in the differential diagnosis for females with episodic abdominal pain and pelvic masses. Relevance to endometriosis: listed as a differential diagnosis for dysmenorrhea, though the paper's main focus is Müllerian duct anomalies rather than endometriosis or adenomyosis.
