ABSTRACT
An adolescent girl with vaginal atresia, massive hematocolpos and bilateral hydroureteronephrosis presented with an acute abdomen secondary to spontaneous rupture of the hematocolpos into the cul-de-sac. Diagnosis, treatment, postoperative course and complications of this unique case are briefly summarized. Spontaneous rupture of hematocolpos into the abdominal cavity is an extremely rare manifestation of vaginal atresia. Tertiary care management, which involves a multidisciplinary team of experienced gynecologists, plastic surgeons, urosurgeons, and critical care physicians, is recommended for optimal management of these patients. Patient education is also crucial; regular follow-ups visits and strict adherence to the postoperative vaginal dilatation schedule can reduce risk of stenosis after vaginoplasty.
