Abstract
Between 1980 and 1990, 17 patients underwent total vaginal replacement at our hospital. The majority of these patients presented with müllerian failure or gender reassignment for intersex. Colon vaginal replacement was done in 15 patients and small bowel was used in 2. Complications included prolapse in 2 patients and stenosis in 2. Of the 17 patients 4 are married, 10 are sexually active, only 1 reports dyspareunia and 1 requires home self-dilation.
