Abstract

Vagina agenesis is a rare entity. Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome is the most significant cause of vagina agenesis, whereas the second most common cause is complete androgen syndrome. Surgical treatment can propitiate a vaginal reconstruction, but sexual function depends on several factors that affect sexual performance. Many reports focus on the intraoperative and postoperative results and only describe the global approach to these patients, but reports focusing on the management of these patients to enable them to have a normal sexual life are lacking. This case report highlights a multidisciplinary treatment for this kind of morbidity and emphasizes the necessity of incorporating careful attention to sexual health in the treatment of these patients so that they may achieve a good therapeutic response, resulting in a pleasurable sexual life and a good quality of living.
