MAYER-ROKITANSKY-KÜSTER-HAUSER SYNDOME AND LAPAROSCOPIC ASSISTED CREATION OF NEOVAGINA (MODIFIED VECCHIETTI)

SUMMARY Objective: To report the post operative 6 month results of tree patients with Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome who underwent laparoscopic assisted creation of neovagina (Modified Vecchietti) by using "Neovagina Set" for the first time in our clinic. Design: Prospective evaluation. Setting: University hospital Patients: Three patients with MHRK syndrome. Interventions: Laparoscopic assisted creation of neovagina (Modified Vecchietti) by using neovagina set. Main outcome measures: Duration of surgery, duration of hospitalisation, intraoperative and post operative complications, post operative respect and maintenance, anatomical and functional results, sexual satisfaction, vaginal epithelization. Results: Operation times were 60, 55, 50 minutes, respectively. Hospitalisation was 7 days for three patients. Anatomical vaginal lenght was 7, 8, 9.5 cm, respectively and vaginal epithelization was completed at 24, 20, 24 months after surgery, respectively. Conclusions: Laparoscopic modified Vecchietti technique with using "neovagina set", which was created and was standardized for this operation, to performe a neovagina should be kept in mind as one of the first step option for patients with MHRK syndrome.
