The triad of uterine didelphys, obstructed hemivagina, and unilateral renal agenesis, called as OHVIRA syndrome is the least common of all Mullerian malformations. We report a case of a 16-year-old girl who presented with lower abdominal pain and amenorrhea. Radiological investigations led us to the diagnosis of OHVIRA syndrome. She was hospitalized and operated upon. OHVIRA syndrome, though a rare Mullerian anomaly, should be kept as a differential diagnosis in a young girl presenting with cyclical pain and amenorrhea with renal agenesis so that surgical management can be performed before long-term complications set in.
