Background: The aim of this study is to determine the effectiveness of McIndoe Vaginoplasty in the creation of a neovagina for patients with vaginal agenesis.
Methods: this is a retrospective study of 50 cases of vaginal agenesis, who underwent McIndoe Vaginoplasty over a period of 8 years (2004-2012) by using skin graft in 25 cases and amnion as graft in the remaining.
Results: McIndoe Vaginoplasty was performed successfully in all 50 patients and post-surgical result was acceptable to the patient psychologically, sexually and aesthetically.
Conclusions: McIndoe Vaginoplasty is a safe and effective procedure for providing a satisfactory and functional vagina in patients with MRKH syndrome.
