About

Genital feminine affirming surgery may be an important step for transgender women. Vaginoplasty consists in the creation of external female genitalia and an operational vaginal cavity, and thus responds to major functional and aesthetic issues.

Different techniques are available: inversion of penile skin flap for creation of the vulva. The vaginal cavity may come from scrotal skin graft, sigmoid segment, small intestine, or peritoneal flap.

Vaginoplasty has a major place in the the transgender woman pathway, but the specific evaluation of long-term sexuality has not been explored so far.
