More DescriptionThis book, Congenital Anomalies: A Colour Atlas of Ileal Neovagina, deals with congenital anomalies. Vaginal agenesis is an uncommon condition, with an incidence ranging from 1 in 4,000 to 1 in 10,000. Congenital absence of uterus and vagina, also called müllerian agenesis or Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome, is the most common factor requiring creation of neovagina. However, creation of neovagina may also be considered after vaginectomy, as from carcinoma, after extensive scarring from trauma or infection or in the case of male to female trans-sexual surgery. The book is enhanced by full colour illustrations and photographic reproductions. Special attention has been paid to the illustrations and photographs to make them more accessible and informative. The technical description is superb and to the point.
