Different interventions for OHVIRA/Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome based on age and symptoms: a single-institution cohort study
Early diagnosis before menarche reduces the risk of therapeutic intervention, while severe dysmenorrhea is a risk factor for therapeutic interventions. Amenorrhea due to pregnancy can result in the re-closure of a pre-existing communicating tract. Minimally invasive management approaches, such as hormone therapy without surgery or vaginoscopic incision, can be effective.
