Congenital vaginal malformation: clinical experiences on vaginal agenesia.

After having described, with brief allusions to the causes which determine vaginal malformations and the different surgical techniques which are generally used for treatment of such forms, the case series is examined of 53 patients who came under our observation in the Gynaecologic and Obstetric Clinics of Padua between 1965 and 1987, and of Verona, limited to the period from 1969 to 1974. We consider that the choice of the most suitable treatment for such pathology cannot be separated from the analyses of such diverse parameters as, for example: the age of the patient at the time of diagnosis, the type of malformation present, and other eventual associated malformations. This induces us to support the personalisation of the treatment of such pathology in each individual case.
