Study summary

Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome is a congenital condition characterized by uterovaginal agenesis in phenotypically normal women with a 46,XX karyotype. Despite increasing knowledge of its clinical and genetic features, MRKH syndrome shows marked phenotypic heterogeneity, and current classification systems do not fully reflect the wide spectrum of anatomical presentations encountered in clinical practice.

This ambispective, observational, monocenter study aims to describe the clinical, sonographic, radiological, and genetic characteristics of patients with suspected or confirmed MRKH syndrome referred to a tertiary referral center. All enrolled patients will undergo standardized pelvic ultrasound evaluation, including transabdominal and transrectal approaches, with optional MRI according to clinical indications. Sonovaginography will be performed to objectively assess vaginal length. Genetic investigations, including array CGH and next-generation sequencing, will be conducted as part of routine clinical care.

The primary objective is to characterize the clinical and ultrasound features of MRKH syndrome. Secondary objectives include the development of a novel image-based classification system to better describe disease severity and morphological patterns, validation of sonovaginography for vaginal length measurement, and correlation of genetic alterations with ultrasound-based staging. The study aims to improve diagnostic standardization and contribute to a better understanding of the genotype-phenotype relationship in MRKH syndrome.

Study population

The study will include female patients aged 10 to 60 years with suspected or previously diagnosed Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome, confirmed by a 46,XX karyotype. Both retrospective and prospective patients referred to the 'Female Genital Tract Anomalies' outpatient clinic at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, IRCCS Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli, Rome, Italy, will be included. Prospective participants will provide informed consent (or parental/guardian consent for minors). Retrospective participants will be included based on previously collected data in compliance with data protection regulations. Patients with other causes of primary amenorrhea or non-46,XX karyotype will be excluded.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Female patients with suspected or previously diagnosed MRKH syndrome
  • 46,XX karyotype
  • Age 10-60 years
  • For prospective patients: signed and Consent to Data Processing (by patient or parent/guardian if minor)
  • For retrospective patients: availability of data collected in compliance with Data Protection regulations (DPIA conducted)

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria

  • Patients with other causes of primary amenorrhea (e.g., Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome / Morris syndrome)
  • Karyotype different from 46,XX
  • For prospective patients: inability to provide or parental/guardian consent if minor
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jan 7, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
