Vaginal delivery in case of an undiagnosed isolated longitudinal vaginal septum: a case report

Isolated longitudinal vaginal septum is a rare Mullerian malformation that may be associated with dyspareunia, dysmenorrhea, primary amenorrhea and infertility. In this case report, the author presents a case of longitudinal vaginal septum in a 20 years old patient with full-term pregnancy whose diagnosis was only made during second stage of labor following vaginal examination. During delivery of baby the septum got lacerated anteroposterioly in the middle and it was resected after the delivery with subsequent suturing. Both mother and child progressed satisfactorily and were discharged from hospital in good health.
