title: Creation of a neovagina by pelviscopy.
abstract: A pelviscopic method for the creation of a neovagina in a case of Mayer-von Rokitansky-Kuester-Hauser syndrome is described. Only one procedure for endoscopic diagnosis and minimal access operative therapy is required. The operative trauma of the Vecchietti procedure is greatly reduced by replacing the Pfannenstiel incision by pelviscopy.
