Popis: | Vaginal agenesis is an uncommon congenital anomaly, and is often associated with agenesis of the uterus and fallopian tubes. Recent reports suggest that non-surgical methods to create a neovagina offer advantages when assisted reproductive treatments are used in the adult life of these women. We have reviewed the management of 39 women with congenital vaginal agenesis to assess the outcomes of neovaginal creation. In 25 women with total Müllerian agenesis, creation of a neovagina using progressive perineal dilatation alone was very successful in women motivated by a sexual relationship. |
