Abstract
Two adolescent girls with acquired vaginal occlusion and resultant hem atometracolpos are presented. Both are long-term survivors of childhoo d malignancies, who prior to multiagent chemotherapy and pelvic irradi ation had normal uteri by imaging. Both were amenorrheic post therapy. Routine follow-up computed tomography (CT) scans to monitor their mal ignancies demonstrated unexpected cystic pelvic masses. subsequently d iagnosed as hematometracolpos.
