Sporadic event: This sequence related to a sporadic event @ 8 weeks into development when the structures that need to join & form the uterus & vagina do not.The result is near normal ovaries & tubes but no structure below & a blind vaginal pouch. A functional vagina can be created, but any childbearing would require use of a surigate. A few (4%) involve affected female siblings, some have kidney defects.
