ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Gonadal dysgenesis, a genetic condition characterized by incomplete of defective formation of the gonads, can present with vaginal agenesis in individuals with 46,XY karyotype. CASE: We report an innovative intervention in the management of vaginal agenesis in a 19-year-old female with gonadal dysgenesis. Despite initial attempts with vaginal dilators, the patient presented unresponsive, leading to the adoption of a neovaginoplasty using Nile Tilapia Fish Skin (NTFS) as graft. The procedure, based on the McIndoe technique, involved the creation of a 10cm x 3cm vaginal canal with an NTFS-wrapped acrylic mold without complications. DISCUSSION: The use of NTFS as a graft for neovaginoplasty in gonadal dysgenesis, a novel approach not previously reported in medical literature for this diagnosis, demonstrated favorable outcomes in terms of functionality and patient well-being.
