INTRODUCTION: The "traditional" method to perform vaginoplasty in male-to-female transgender surgery consists in inverting the penoscrotal skin into a surgically created cavity in the perineum between the rectum and the bladder creating a neovagina. To overcome the noteworthy disadvantage of lack of depth, the use of a rectosigmoid graft can be preferred over the penile skin inversion.
AIM: The aim of this study was to compare 2 methods for vaginoplasty in male-to-female transgender surgery in regard of the functional and cosmetic long-term result. Additionally this study aims to understand key factors leading to secondary sigmoid vaginoplasty in patients with previous penile skin inversion.
METHODS: This is a retrospective survey of outcomes and complications of 43 patients who underwent neovaginoplasty by the same senior surgeon, between 2007 and 2017. 13 patients underwent a secondary rectosigmoid neovagina later (30.2%). Moreover, we performed an aesthetic and functional evaluation on 28 patients (65%) at long-term follow-up. Mean follow-up was 32.6 ± 3.5 months (average ± SEM). Patients were also evaluated by a questionnaire to assess both aesthetic and functional (penetration, orgasm, and pain) outcomes. Statistical analysis was used to compare results between groups.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Patient satisfaction was assessed by a questionnaire sent to all 43 patients and was made of 5 questions (Q1 to Q5) designed in a way to evaluate patient outcomes in terms of both functionality and cosmesis of the neovagina.
RESULTS: Our findings showed that the use of a rectosigmoid graft in secondary cases significantly decreased sexual pain during intercourse. Both techniques had similar aesthetic and functional outcomes with mostly satisfied patients (no statistical significance).
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: The use of sigmoid vaginoplasty could improve functional outcomes when compared to penile skin inversion vaginoplasty.
STRENGTH & LIMITATIONS: This study strength is its retrospective nature conducted on a prospectively-maintained database limiting biases with 43 consecutive vaginoplasties, performed by the same surgeon. Relative limitation was that not all patients returned our questionnaire and, thus, only 65% of our patients were evaluated for satisfaction.
CONCLUSION: This study reports long-term outcomes in transgender surgery using 2 different techniques for neovagina creation. The use of sigmoid vaginoplasty showed better functional outcomes than penile skin inversion, whereas cosmetic results were similar. di Summa PG, Watfa W, Krähenbühl S, et al.
