TEACHING POINTS

The most commonly used classification system for mullerian anomalies is that created by American Fertility Society (AFS). Occasionally anomalies are identified on imaging which do not closely match any of the described classes. Very recently the EUROPEAN SOCIETY OF HUMAN REPRODUCTION AND EMBRYOLOGY and EUROPEAN SOCIETY FOR GYNECOLOGICAL ENDOSCOPY formed a working group CONUTA to arrive at a more accurate and objective classification. The working group has developed a new system based on scientific research and recommendations of experts. The purpose of the exhibit is therefore to review the new classification system, explain how this system builds on and clarifies the AFS system, and to demonstrate how to use the system with imaging case examples  

TABLE OF CONTENTS/OUTLINE

Review the newly proposed classification of mullerian anomalies, which includes: U (uterus), C (cervix), V (vagina) categorization for each given anomaly, compare the new system with the currently used AFS classification system Review representative cases with multiple imaging modalities: US, 3D US, MR, hysterosalpingography and in selected cases CT Review clinical implication for fertility and patient management Review clinical treatment methods based on new classification system Review new treatment frontiers for treatment of female infertility, including uterus transplantation
