Laparoscopic-assisted perineal pull-through vaginoplasty.

Hematometrocolpos is the result of vaginal obstruction and can become an emergency in the pubertal period. The treatment of imperforate hymen is well defined, but the treatment of vaginal atresia is more complex. We report a case of hematometrocolpos secondary to distal vaginal atresia that was operated on in the pubertal period. The patient had isolated distal atresia without persistence of the urogenital sinus. A combined abdominal laparoscopic and perineal approach and a posterior vaginoplasty were carried out. Finally, an abdominoperineal pull-through was successfully performed. Neovagina was successfully developed with this method. The embryology and literature are reviewed. The classification, indications, and surgical technique are discussed. We suggest that this procedure is suitable for patients with vaginal agenesis and a normal uterus.
