ABSTRACT
Congenital malformations of the female genital tract represent a relevant clinical entity, especially in reproductive age. Novel technological advances improve diagnostic mechanisms for simple to complex malformations with the subsequent implementation of an integrated management plan. This review has the only purpose to communicate updated information regarding all Müllerian anomalies classification systems known, presenting advances in diagnostic procedures and management currently recommended.
