Detailed description
A vaginal septum refers to an additional vertical membrane within the vagina, often accompanied by a double uterus, double cervix, and ipsilateral renal hypoplasia.
Based on anatomical characteristics, this condition can be divided into two types:
Incomplete septum: The anterior end of the septum does not reach the vaginal opening, which may cause difficulty or discomfort during sexual intercourse, and obstruct fetal delivery during childbirth.
Complete septum: The anterior end of the septum reaches the vaginal opening, usually without discomfort.
