Resumen

La obstrucción del tracto urinario inferior en la mujer es una patología poco frecuente, ocasionada por a múltiples trastornos, tanto orgánicos como funcionales. Presentamos un caso de uropatía obstructiva secundaria a la presencia de una sinequia vulvar prácticamente completa por atrofia genital extrema, entidad rara que puede aparecer en mujeres postmenopáusicas. Lo habitual en atrofias postmenopáusicas importantes es la fusión parcial e incompleta de la vulva, en ocasiones con estenosis asociada del meato uretral, pero sin repercusión significativa sobre la dinámica miccional. En la literatura revisada no hemos encontrado ningún caso similar al nuestro.

Palabras clave:

Abstract

Lower urinary tract obstruction in women is an uncommon condition resulting from multiple either organic or functional disorders. This paper contributes one case of obstructive uropathy secondary to presence of almost complete vulvar synechia due to extreme genital atrophy, a rare entity that may appear in postmenopausal women. Partial and incomplete vulvar fusion usually occurs in significant postmenopausal atrophies, sometimes associated to urethral meatus stricture; this, however, has no significant repercussion on urination dynamics. No other comparable case was found in the reviewd literature.

Key words:
Vulvar atrophy
Menopause
Obstructive uropathy
Vulvar synechia
