Congenital absence of the vagina was repaired in twenty patients; the longest follow-up was seventeen years. The surgical method is described, including the skin graft, the sculpted prosthesis, and the mechanic's waste bolus for retention. The patient must be oriented thoroughly before the operation. Even with an optimum surgical result, full cooperation and psychological preparation are necessary to gain a successful transformation. The phrase "psychiatry with a scalpel" is apt in these cases. Ideally, the operation is performed by a team of plastic surgeon and gynecologist. Meticulous planning and regard for detail are fundamental requirements.
对20例先天性无阴道患者进行了修复手术；最长随访时间为17年。文中描述了手术方法，包括植皮、塑形假体以及用于固定的技工废棉团。术前必须让患者充分了解情况。即使手术效果理想，要实现成功转变，患者的充分配合和心理准备也是必要的。在这些病例中，“用手术刀的精神病学”这一说法很贴切。理想情况下，手术由整形外科医生和妇科医生团队进行。精心规划和注重细节是基本要求。
