The uterine agenesis - hypoplasia-hypoplasia spectrum accounts for ~ 10 - 15 ~10-15% of all MullerianMüllerian duct anomalies.
Pathology
Complete absence of the Mullerian ducts is termed Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome which includes absence of the vagina as well.

- renal tract anomalies including renal agenesis
- skeletal
-: vertebral anomalies
