Article Abstract
The transverse vaginal septum is a rare form of Mullerian duct anomaly, and is a disorder of vertical fusion of Mullerian system with the sinovaginal bulb. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)is very useful in the detection, classification and management planning of this rare anomaly. We present two cases of transverse vaginal septum in two patients of different age groups and with different clinical presentations. The findings on MRI, related to presence of vaginal septum and the management work-up, are also discussed.

The connective tissue support of female pelvic viscera-endopelvic fascia-has been studied in fetal and immunohistochemical models to demonstrate its relationship with the autonomic nerves of the female pelvis. Due to a paucity of literature examining the gross anatomical relationships between endopelvic fascia and autonomic nerves in adult female pelvises, it remains unknown whether defects in endopelvic fascia predisposing pelvic organ prolapse and/or manipulation of endopelvic fascia during prolapse repair may be the cause of prolapse-related pelvic pain and sexual dysfunction. Through the dissection of formalin-fixed hemipelvises (n = 10) the present study aimed to map the loci of the visceral branches of the inferior hypogastric plexus and associate them with endopelvic fascia of the female pelvis.

Background: Traumatic cloacal deformities are a result of major obstetric injury and usually happens after a fourth-degree perineal laceration. This is characterized by complete disruption of the perineal body, anterior defect of the internal and external anal sphincter, and loss of the distal rectovaginal and/or anovaginal septum. The common chamber incorporating vagina and recto anal outlet ensues as cloaca.

Complex Müllerian anomalies, such as a complete septate uterus (U2b), cervical duplication (C2), and a non-obstructive longitudinal vaginal septum (V1), are rare malformations with intricate embryological origins. They often remain undiagnosed in the absence of specific clinical symptoms. This case highlights the diagnostic value of pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and the therapeutic benefit of personalized surgical management.

Objective: To assess the intermodality agreement between transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the evaluation of deep pelvic endometriosis (DE), using a compartment-based framework that includes both classical and extended pelvic structures. This study was not designed to assess diagnostic accuracy, as no surgical or histological reference standard was used.
Methods: In this prospective study, 79 symptomatic women with clinical suspicion of DE underwent standardized TVUS and MRI protocols within a 20-day interval.
