Abstract
Background: There are many described reconstructive techniques for vaginal agenesis including vaginal dilators, skin covered molds, sigmoid grafts, vulval and large muscle flaps all of which aim to produce a vagina of normal axis, secretory capacity and length. We report the laparoscopic approach to Davydov's operation which utilizes peritoneum to line the newly dissected vesicorectal space.Methods: A case report detailing preoperative evaluation, surgical technique and outcome.Results: There were no intraoperative or immediate postoperative complications. The patient was discharged from hospital within 23 hours of surgery. Six month follow up revealed a vagina 7–8 cm in length, lined with squamous epithelium. The patient reports satisfactory sexual intercourse.Conclusion: This technique provides a satisfactory option for the surgical management of vaginal agenesis.
