[The segmented phantom insert for the formation of a neovagina according to Vecchietti].

Formation of a neovagina by surgical cavitation with an olive-shaped plastic form following Vecchietti, yields good functional and cosmetic results. By replacing the olive with a motile model consisting of a variable number of single segments, complications can be reduced. The newly developed model leads to better dilatation and stabilization of the newly-formed vagina. Wound secretion is drained by an interior canal and by lateral perforations. Through this canal, catheter irrigations and drug application are possible. 15 cases of this novel surgical technique are reported.
