Prenatal Detection of Intra-Abdominal Cyst Leading to Neonatal Diagnosis of OHVIRA Syndrome

This case report describes the prenatal detection of an intra-abdominal cyst in a fetus, which subsequently led to a neonatal diagnosis of OHVIRA syndrome. The authors detail the clinical progression and diagnostic steps taken to identify this congenital anomaly associated with Müllerian duct abnormalities. The paper highlights the importance of prenatal imaging in identifying structural defects that may not be immediately apparent at birth. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically, OHVIRA (Obstructed Hemivagina and Ipsilateral Renal Agenesis) syndrome is a Müllerian anomaly often discussed in gynecological contexts alongside endometriosis due to shared embryological origins and potential for associated pelvic pathology, though the primary focus here is the obstructive anomaly itself.
