Wharton–Sheares–George vaginoplasty: a safe and efficient technique in patients with Mayer–Rokitansky–Küster–Hauser syndrome

Introduction and hypothesis Mayer–Rokitansky–Küster–Hauser (MRKH) syndrome is a condition with an underdeveloped or absent vagina and uterus due to embryological growth failure of the Müllerian ducts. Many techniques have been described to construct a neovagina with an acceptable depth that allows penetrative intercourse. This is a step-by-step video tutorial on the Wharton–Sheares–George surgical technique for vaginoplasty in patients with MRKH syndrome. Method With Wharton–Sheares–George vaginoplasty, the rudimentary Müllerian ducts are incrementally dilated by pushing Hegar dilators in the direction of the pelvic axis, and the resulting median raphe is then intersected using diathermy. As a result, a neovagina is created and an estriol-coated vaginal mold is inserted for 3 days. The patient receives comprehensive discharge instructions, a self-dilation program three times a day, and a monthly follow-up. Results A 3-month follow-up showed a high subjective degree of satisfaction with surgery and sexual satisfaction in both patients. Conclusion Wharton–Sheares–George vaginoplasty is a safe and efficient technique for creating a neovagina for patients with MRKH syndrome.
