[Surgical treatment of congenital transverse septum below the cervix of the vagina].
Transverse septa underneath the cervix are thick and have above them a funnel-shaped vault covered by pathological mucous membranes. The surgical procedures that are normally used to try to treat the condition and to avoid soft tissue dystocia by carrying out V-Y plasties using Garcia's technique or Z-plasties, or even radial incisions followed by the insertion of a pack, are all somewhat unsatisfactory. The authors, confronted with a similar case, decided to cut out the dome of the vagina and the diaphragm and followed that by a small amputation of the cervix, with anastomosis of the uterus and the remaining vagina.
