Robotic peritoneal flap vaginoplasty revision is a safe and feasible surgical option for transgender women experiencing vaginal canal stenosis after initial vaginoplasty. This technique effectively restores vaginal patency and depth.

Area of Science:

  • Surgical innovation in gender-affirming care
  • Minimally invasive reconstructive surgery
  • Transgender women's health

Background:

  • Penile inversion vaginoplasty is common for transgender women but has high revision rates.
  • Vaginal canal stenosis or shortening is a frequent functional complication requiring revision surgery.
  • Revision vaginoplasty presents unique surgical challenges, particularly in flap reconstruction.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a step-by-step technique for robotic peritoneal flap revision vaginoplasty.
  • To discuss the indications, challenges, and postoperative management of this revision procedure.
  • To evaluate the feasibility and outcomes of robotic revision vaginoplasty.

Main Methods:

  • Detailed description of the robotic peritoneal flap vaginoplasty revision technique.

  • Inclusion of surgical tips and step-by-step guidance.
  • Outline of postoperative care, including vaginal packing, catheter management, and discharge planning.

    • Main Results:

    • Robotic peritoneal flap vaginoplasty revision is feasible and safe.
    • Average operative time was 3 hours with an estimated blood loss of 20 ml.
    • Postoperative management included early discharge, with serial vaginoscopies to ensure patency.

    Conclusions:

    • Harvesting a peritoneal flap is feasible even after prior perineal flap surgery.
    • Robotic revision vaginoplasty effectively re-establishes vaginal canal patency and depth.
    • This procedure offers a viable solution for transgender women needing vaginal reconstruction revision.
