Customized Hollow Vaginal Stent: A Case Report on Tailored Design and Therapeutic Outcomes

Aim and background: Congenital vaginal (VG) agenesis is a common condition associated with Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome (SYN).The physiology and psychology of these patients are significantly affected by these anomalies.Treatment options include both surgical and non-surgical treatment which provides for prefabricated and customized vaginal stents (VSs).They are commonly used for both vaginal reconstruction and maintenance.This case study aims to describe the fabrication of a customized hollow acrylic vaginal stent for a female patient with VG agenesis associated with MRKH SYN.Case description: A 22-year-old female patient diagnosed with MRKH SYN presented with congenital VG agenesis.She was referred to the Department of Prosthodontics from the Department of Gynaecology for the fabrication of a vaginal stent to aid in vaginal reconstruction and maintenance.For 6 months, the patient had biweekly follow-up appointments when the acrylic stent was maintained and instructions were given. Conclusion:The presented technique provides precise customization and a customized fit that improves patient comfort and facilitates insertion and removal.Due to its accessibility, cost-effectiveness, and simple design, this approach can be used in a variety of clinical situations.The ice-hollowing approach provides a customized fit that accommodates their unique anatomical needs, improving comfort and the risk of irritation or pain.Clinical significance: Customized vaginal stents play a crucial role in both surgical and non-surgical management of VG agenesis.By restoring vaginal anatomy and function, vaginal stents contribute significantly to psychosexual rehabilitation, body image improvement, and overall quality of life in affected individuals.
