Abstract
Background: Transperineal sonography has been used to detect incompete nt cervices, placenta previa, cervical pregnancy, and vaginal and cerv ical atresia. Case: Transperineal sonography was used to investigate p rimary amenorrhea in a 14-year-old girl. A mid-transverse septum was f ound and confirmed surgically.Conclusion: Transperineal or translabial sonography assisted in the differentiation of primary amenorrhea, whe n adequate vaginal access was prohibited.
