  • Title: Vaginoplasty with an Autologous Buccal Mucosa Fenestrated Graft in Two Patients with Vaginal Agenesis: A Multidisciplinary Approach and Literature Review.
    Author: Chan JL, Levin PJ, Ford BP, Stanton DC, Pfeifer SM.
    Journal: J Minim Invasive Gynecol; 2017; 24(4):670-676. PubMed ID: 28212868.
    Abstract:
    Here we describe the procedure and outcomes of a multidisciplinary approach to vaginoplasty using autologous buccal mucosa fenestrated grafts in 2 patients with vaginal agenesis. This procedure resulted in anatomic success, with a functional neovagina with good vaginal length and caliber and satisfactory sexual function capacity and well-healed buccal mucosa. There were no complications, and the patients were satisfied with the surgical results. We conclude that the use of a single fenestrated graft of autologous buccal mucosa is a simple, effective procedure for the treatment of vaginal agenesis that results in an optimally functioning neovagina with respect to vaginal length, caliber, and sexual capacity.
