Anomalies and Curiosities of Medicine

CHAPTER VI
249/293

Haller and Borellus have seen double vagina, double uterus, and double ovarian supply; in the latter case there was also a double vulva.

Sanger speaks of a supernumerary vagina connecting with the other vagina by a fistulous opening, and remarks that this was not a case of patent Gartner's duct.
Cullingworth cites two cases in which there were transverse septa of the vagina.

Stone reports five cases of transverse septa of the vagina.
Three of the patients were young women who had never borne children or suffered injury.

Pregnancy existed in each case.

In the first the septum was about two inches from the introitus, and contained an opening about 1/2 inch in diameter which admitted the tip of the finger.
