  • Title: Pelvic pneumography in the investigation of patients with primary amenorrhoea.
    Author: Kolawole TM, Aimakhu VE.
    Journal: Diagn Imaging; 1981; 50(1):20-8. PubMed ID: 7261846.
    Abstract:
    A comparative analysis of a prospective study of 31 patients presenting with primary amenorrhoea is given. Most patients were studied by radiodiagnostic pelvic pneumography as well as chromosome analysis. The radiological findings were confirmed by laparotomy, thus vindicating pelvic pneumography as an accurate diagnostic tool in this environment. The commonest causes of primary amenorrhoea are Müllerian and ovarian agenesis singly or in combination. Occasionally, tuberculosis may also present as primary amenorrhoea.
