ABSTRACT
Imperforate hymen is a rare congenital malformation, but it can make hematocolpometra and complications. In most cases definite finding is noticed after menarche as retention of menstrual flow results in abdominal pain, distension of the lower abdomen and often in acute urinary retention. A case of imperforate hymen associated with hematocolpometra at age of 12 was treated satisfactorily by simple crucial incision of hymen and drained of about 450 cc of tarry blood. We present a case of imperforate hymen with a brief review of literatures concerned.
