Abstract

The aim of this study is to review the genic or chromosomal abnormalities involved in the development of Müllerian or gynecological malformations.

The frequency of congenital anomalies in the female genital tract ranges from 0.1% to 3.0% of live births. This study aims to characterize the potential chromosomal and genetic anomalies involved in the triggering phenomena.
