The original clinical contributions by Rokitansky, Mayer, Küster, and Hauser are credited in the eponymous syndrome most commonly associated with vaginal agenesis. Mayer provided the early description of this condition in stillborn infants with multiple birth defects, Rokitansky and Küster contributed to an understanding of the disorder by identifying the absence of the uterus despite normal ovaries and normal external genitalia, and Hauser reported the frequent association with renal and skeletal anomalies. The syndrome is variably termed RMKH syndrome, Rokitansky-Mayer syndrome, or, simply, Rokitansky syndrome.
