ABSTRACT
In this work, several refinements of McIndoe technique were presented which are the dissection of a large pocket using an adjustable vaginal stent and the use of a meshed thick split thickness skin graft for lining the neovaginal pocket. This study included six cases of congenital vaginal agenesis [two patients had testicular feminization syndrome]. The volume of the reconstructed vaginal pockets ranged from 65 to 130 cc. After six-month follow-up period, the percentage of reduction in the size of the neovaginae from their original sizes ranged from 4.25 to 11.5%. These refinements proved to be of a value in improving the final outcome of the McIndoe technique for vaginal reconstruction
