Vaginal Reconstruction in Müllerian Agenesis with User- Friendly Indigenous Prosthetic Vaginal Dilators

Abstract

ABSTRACT Objective Vaginal reconstruction in Müllerian agenesis through nonsurgical method, using serial vaginal dilators which were worn by the patients with the help of a T-shaped perineal bandage. Materials and methods Seven patients with Müllerian agenesis had attended the outpatient clinic between 2008 and 2013. The age of women ranged from 18 to 30 years. This clinical report describes the use of prosthesis, fabricated by a maxillofacial prosthodontist that enabled the patients to have custom made personalized vaginal dilators of increasing dimensions which they could wear with comfort with a tight perineal T-bandage. Results Seven women with Müllerian agenesis had consented for nonsurgical mode of vaginal reconstruction. Vagina was serially dilated with tailor made prosthesis worn using tight perineal T-bandage for a period of 3 to 4 months. Post dilatation average vaginal length was 11 to 13 cm which allowed introduction of Sims speculum with ease. Conclusion Nonsurgical vaginal dilatation using prosthetic vaginal dilators kept in place with tight perineal T-bandage is a well-accepted custom made and a successful technique in the creation of neovagina.
