First-Line Therapy for Vaginal Atresia. Conservative Treatment vs Surgical Techniques: Quandaries Looking at Numbers
Although it has been clearly stated that vaginal dilation must be considered the first-line treatment for clinical conditions characterized by an absent or hypoplastic vagina, mainly Mayer-Rokitansky-K üster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome, a great number of scientific papers on surgical vaginal reconstructions are reported every year. This wide variety of surgical techniques (more than 10) are recognized and performed worldwide, making it difficult to compare results and define an evidence-based approach .

027 Uterine transplantation in women with MRKH
Uterine infertility, which is characterized by the absence of the uterus or the presence of a dysfunctional uterus, affects about 5% of subfertile women. Mayer-Rokitansky-K üster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome is one of the most frequent causes of congenital absence of a functional uterus. Until recently these women had to rely on surrogacy or adoption to accomplish their child-wish, recently however the technique of uterine transplantation brought hope to this population. Se veral studies demonstrated that there is in fact a real interest among MRKH-women in this new technique: about 2 in 3 appears to consider the option of uter...

135 Type 2 Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome with unicornuate non communicating uterus and cervical hypoplasia: A rare association
Introduction. Faced with primary amenorrhea in a teenage girl with well-developed secondary sexual characteristics, a congenital anatomical defect must be ruled out first. Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome (MRKH) which results from a failure of fusion of the M üllerian ducts in the embryo, resulting in total utero-vaginal agenesis or uterine hypoplasia with partial vaginal atresia in patients with 46, XX karyotype, is a diagnosis to consider.

078 A rare case of Mayer-Rokitansky-K üster-Hauser syndrome associated with bilateral ovarian agenesis in a normal karyotypic female
Objective: Mayer-Rokitansky-K üster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome is the second more common cause of primary amenorrhea resulting from congenital absence of the vagina and agenesis or hypoplasia of the Mullerian (paramesonephric) ducts. Patients with MRKH syndrome have normal functioning ovaries with normal 46, XX karyotype and underg o puberty. On the contrary bilateral gonadal agenesis is a rare cause of hypergonadotropic hypogonadism. Combination of these two pathologic entities is sporadically reported in the literature.

Burden of Affected Persons with MRKH Syndrome: Effect of an Intervention to Support Surgical Neovaginal Placement
Conclusion Those affected show a clear, clinically relevant distress (SF-12), but this is not reflected in the form of psychological comorbidity (PHQ-D). This apparent discrepancy points to psychologically stable women with acute distress due to the diagnosis of variant sex de-evolution. For them, a low-threshold support service with a supportive character seems to be necessary and helpful during the surgical treatment. The reconstructive therapy for the creation of a neovagina seems to have a positive influence on the psychological quality of life. The fact that pregnancy is still not possible due to the missing uterus co...
