Vaginoplasty using amniotic membranes in cases of vaginal agenesis or after vaginectomy.
Various treatments have been proposed for vaginal agenesis.  The authors describe successful procedures using amniotic membranes as a graft on vaginoplasties.  The amnion was not stripped from the chorion.  The results showed the vagina to be well formed and of normal depth and caliber.
