Congenital anomalies of the female genital tract account for 14% of all congenital malformations and 3–7% of gynecological disorders in children and adolescents. Currently, there are a number of unresolved issues related to the systematization and diagnosis of such anomalies. The article presents an up-to-date and carefully selected information on this topic and highlights existing difficulties that require further study. The literature review is aimed at searching for relevant classifications and modern diagnostics for congenital anomalies of the female genital tract for further personalized treatment tactics. Literature analysis has shown that the etiology and pathogenesis of congenital anomalies of the female genital tract are complex, heterogeneous and understudied. To date, there is no single generally accepted classification of congenital anomalies of the female genital tract, while the proposed article presents modern methods for diagnosing this pathology and the subtleties concerning the results interpreting for a correct diagnosis. Keywords: congenital anomalies, developmental anomalies of the female genital tract, classification, diagnosis.
