Laparoscopic lateral suspension to treat neovaginal prolapse in a patient with Mayer–Rokitansky–Kuster–Hauser syndrome: A rare case report

Abstract

Various methods have been described to treat neovaginal prolapse in patients with Mayer–Rokitansky–Küster–Hauser (MRKH) syndrome. In this case report, we describe neovaginal prolapse of a 21-year-old patient with MRKH syndrome which had been created by sexual intercourse dilation. Herein, the laparoscopic lateral suspension was performed for the surgical correction of neovaginal prolapse which is not available in the literature as far as we search. Prolapse was successfully corrected and vaginal length was provided at a sufficient length of 7 cm. Since after 1-year of operation, she has remained satisfied with her surgical outcome anatomically, sexually and psychologically. Laparoscopic lateral suspension is a safe and effective treatment in a patient who has neovaginal prolapse with MRKH syndrome and also can be used as a potentially alternative management in the treatment of neovaginal prolapse in patients with MRKH syndrome. © 2020 Japan Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology
