Satisfactory Outcome of Various Novel Modified Laparoscopic Neovaginoplasty Using Autologous Peritoneal Graft

Abstract

Management of vaginal agenesis in Mayer–Rokitansky–Küster–Hauser syndrome patients is by creating functional neovagina through surgical or nonsurgical route. Surgical repair using minimally invasive technique is a favorable option in creating neovagina. In this study, the patients underwent neovaginoplasty. Clinical follow-ups were done at 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively. The primary outcomes were anatomic and functional successes; anatomical success was defined as a ≥6 cm-long neovagina that allows for easy introduction of two fingers, and functional success was defined with Female Sexual Function Index FSFI-6 questionnaire score above 19. Modified neovaginoplasty using autologous peritoneal graft was performed on the patients (n = 6). Follow-up showed mean vaginal lengths of 8.16 cm, mean surgery time of 175 min, mean blood loss of 59.17 ml, and mean duration of hospital stay of 2 days, with an average FSFI-6 score of 25,2. Therefore, we concluded that laparoscopic approach using modified technique of autologous peritoneal graft provides satisfactory result.
