Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome (MRKH) also known as Müllerian agenesis, is caused by embryologic underdevelopment of the Mullerian duct, with resultant agenesis or atresia of the vagina, uterus, or both. Patients usually present with primary amenorrhea with normal growth and pubertal development. Here we present a case of a 29-year-old woman presented with primary amenorrhea. Secondary sexual characteristics and hormone evaluation were normal. Ultrasound and MRI were conducted and revealed complete absence of uterus, small vaginal canal. Bilateral renalfossa were empty and both the kidneys were located in the pelvic cavity fused to one-another with single renal pelvis giving pancake appearance.
