Case presentation: The patient was a 26-year-old female with complain of severe abdominal and pelvic pain with significant weight loss. She had a history of surgery for correction of hydrometrocolpos (fluid accumulation in the uterus and vagina) because of transverse vaginal septum at infancy period.
