FUNCTIONAL AND ANATOMICAL RESULTS AFTER M c INDOE VAGINOPLASTY

Abstract

BACKGROUND:Mullerian agenesis is a challenge to reconstructive surgeons. In order to create a new vagina that mimic the normal one in size, lining and appearance, multiple techniques have been designed; among these techniques Mc Indoe vaginoplasty represents the simplest one with good results. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Five patients with mullerian agenesis underwent Mc Indoe vaginoplasty, they were followed for 12 months and their functional and anatomical results were recorded and compared with a control group of normal females. RESULTS: Patients treated by Mc Indoe vaginoplasty showed high success rate for creation of vagina that were approximately similar to normal one in size (length=12 cm and diameter= 4cm) , functionally their sexual satisfaction measured by FSSI were the same as in normal female. CONCLUSION: Mc Indoe procedure is a successful operation for creating an anatomical, functional and aesthetical satisfying vagina.
