OBJECTIVE To describe modifications to the double-layer peritoneal pull-down laparoscopic vaginoplasty technique (Davydov operation) and evaluate anatomic and functional outcomes of the new technique, known as the Uncu modification. DESIGN Case series (Canadian Task Force classification III). SETTING Tertiary care university hospital. PATIENTS Women with Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome (MRKHS) who underwent surgery between 2010 and 2016. INTERVENTIONS Laparoscopic double-layer peritoneal pull-down vaginoplasty with paramesonephric remnant support to the neovagina. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Long-term anatomic and functional satisfaction results. Twenty-seven women with MRKHS underwent surgery with the Uncu-modified Davydov procedure. At 1 year after surgery, the mean vaginal length in these patients was 7.91 ± 1.4 cm. Among the 23 patients who had regular vaginal intercourse, the mean functional satisfaction score was 8.65 ± 1.2. One patient had a perioperative bladder injury, and another patient had a rectovaginal fistula at 3 months after the operation. One woman who did not comply with the prescribed postoperative mold exercises had complete closure of the introitus. CONCLUSION The Uncu modified laparoscopic double-layer peritoneal pull-down technique appears to be an effective and safe surgical management option that is easy to learn and perform by gynecologic surgeons.
