Abstract

Objective

To compare using the acellular porcine small intestinal submucosa (SIS) graft or the Interceed in patients with MRKH syndrome undergoing creation of a neovagina.

Methods

In this retrospective study, patients with MRKH syndrome undergoing creation of a neovagina from 2016 to 2018 were retrospectively investigated. Wharton–Sheares–George neovaginoplasty was performed using the acellular porcine SIS graft or the Interceed.

Results

Overall, 67 patients were included for analysis. The operating time, the estimated blood loss and return of bowel activity were similar between the two groups. However, the total cost in the SIS group was significantly higher than that in the Interceed group due to the cost of the SIS graft. The mean length and width of the neovagina were similar between the two groups. However, the incidence of granulation in vaginal apex was higher in the SIS graft group than that in the Interceed group. There was no statistically significant difference in the total FSFI scores between the two groups who became sexually active postoperatively.

Conclusions

Our results demonstrated that Wharton–Sheares–George method provided the patients to have satisfactory sexual intercourse. The Interceed played a role in the reconstruction of neovagina no less than the SIS graft.
