Vaginal reconstruction with free jejunal flap.

Congenital absence of a vagina is a rare but outstanding anomaly of plastic surgery. Although many methods are described for reconstruction of vaginal agenesis, there is not a method yet to be approved as a perfect solution to this problem. With the aim of solving the problems faced with conventional methods, free jejunal transplantation was planned to construct a neovagina. For this method, we isolated a 15-cm jejunal segment, with its pedicle, transferred it to the preprepared vaginal pouch, and anastomosed the donor vessels of the mesentery to the inferior epigastric vessels. In the postoperative sixth month, problems of intercourse or the need to use any lubricator or stent were still not experienced and reported. In this paper, we judge and compare our approach by reviewing others.
