Journal Title: Perspectives In Medical Research - Year 2013, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Background: Vaginal agenesis is a congenital anomaly of the female genital tract and may present as isolated developmental defect or as part of a complex of anomalies. The aim of reporting this case was to determine the effectiveness of vaginoplasty by using amnion as graft in the creation of neovagina for a patient with Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser Syndrome. Case report: Vaginoplasty using amnion graft was successfully performed in this case of 23 year old young lady with MRKH type-II syndrome. Thefunctional result was quite satisfactory. Post surgical result was acceptable to the patient sexually and emotionally. Conclusion: The ideal method for vaginoplasty is yet to be defined and all of the available methods have potential advantages, disadvantages or complications. Vaginoplasty by modified Abbe-McIndoe procedure using amnion graft is still a safe, relatively simple and effective procedure.
