Complete uterovaginal septum is unusually associated with an obstructed left hemivagina and hemiuteri. Herein we present a case report of "hybrid septate variant" anomaly diagnosed in a 16-year-old girl. The uterine septum could not be completely removed hysteroscopically because of the obstructed vagina and thick uterine septum; therefore an abdominal approach, robotic metroplastic surgery was performed. We propose that the robotic technology has advantages over the classical laparoscopy related with the surgical correction of Müllerian anomaly.

Study Objective: The association between endometriosis and congenital uterine anomalies (CUAs) has been discussed for decades, but existing evidence about this association is scarce. The aim of our study is to evaluate the prevalence of CUAs in women with endometriosis and to identify specific characteristics in women with both CUAs and endometriosis in a large cohort of patients.

Design: This is a retrospective single-center observational study conducted between January 2006 and June 2021.
