ABSTRACT: Imperforate hymenis a congenital obstructive abnormality of the female genital tract and
its incidence is estimated at 1/2000 female births. The diagnosis may go
unnoticed during the examination of the new born in the birth room. Most often,
this malformation is discovered at puberty.Treatment ofImperforate hymenis hymenotomy or hymenectomy. Different types of incisions are mentioned
in the literature. We have reported the case of a 14-year-oldgirl with hematocolpos
and hematometra on hymenal impforforate. In cultures and religions where the
loss of the hymen is a social problem among unmarried girls, a medical
certificate must be given to the patient.
