Abstract:
Vaginal agenesis is uncommon gynecologic condition, and the most common etiology is Mullerian agenesis also called Mayer-Rokitansky-Kster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome. In such patients, the evaluation for associated malformations as well as careful non-surgical and surgical approach are essential. The neovaginoplasty is an important issue for these patients from a functional and a psychological standpoint. We describe two patients with Mullerian agenesis, who have undergone vaginal reconstruction by McIndoe technique.
