Abstract
Between 1982 and 1997, 29 patients with congenital absence of the vagina underwent modified McIndoe vaginoplasty at the Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Ege University Medical School, Izmir, Turkey. As a modification, an X incision was utilized instead of a straight-line horizontal or sagittal incision. During the first postoperative week, a perforated Pyrex rigid mold was used. This was replaced with an unperforated mold at the end of the first week. These patients' medical records were reviewed retrospectively. Complications encountered included infection, total lack of skin graft take, stress urinary incontinence, partial graft loss, and vaginal stricture. All complications were treated except the stress urinary incontinence, and the final results were satisfactory.
