Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The clinical analysis of 48 patients of primary amenorrhoea seen at All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi for a period of 3 years, was performed. Twenty-six patients (54.2%) had muellerian anomalies, 11 (22.9%) had hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, 8 (16.6%) had hypergonadotropic hypogonadism and 3 (6.3%) had genital tuberculosis. The study highlights the role of transabdominal sonography in the work up of these cases. It suggests the reproductive potential of these cases by visualising the genital organs and makes laparoscopy and intravenous pyelography obsolete and selects the cases who deserve to be further investigated.
