Reconstructive surgery for congenital atresia of the uterine cervix. 1976

M Farber, and D J Marchant

Reconstructive surgery for congenital atresia of the uterine cervix, utilizing the atretic cervix as a conduit for the permanent fistulous communication between the endometrial cavity and vagina, has resulted in the establishment of cyclic menses in four patients followed for up to 27 months postoperatively. A detailed review of maternal obstetric histories failed to reveal a common factor causally related to this extremely unusual and formerly hopeless congenital anomaly of the Müllerian ducts.
