Abstract
In this paper, we present three patients with Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome (MRKH), which is a congenital anomaly that clinically presents as aplasia of the vagina and uterus. After the correct diagnosis, these patients were operated on with the open surgical method for the creation of a neovagina with a vascularized and isoperistaltic segment of the sigmoid. Their postoperative follow up has been satisfactory. With the surgical treatment, in all three patients the cosmetic aspect, sexual functionality and cohabitation was achieved, as the final goal of creating the neovagina.
