Genital outflow tract obstruction due to cervical agenesis is an uncommon Mullerian duct anomaly, increasingly being treated with conservative surgery by creation of an outflow tract by drilling or coring into the cervical remnant or by uterovaginal anastomosis. A 19-year-old woman with cervical dysgenesis in the present case underwent a successful uterovaginal anastomosis to relieve the obstructive menstrual symptoms and preserve the future reproductive function. The neouterovaginal canal was created over a mold of Foley's catheter by anastomosis anterior surface of the uterine corpus to the vaginal vault, bypassing the dysgenetic cervix and using the fibrous band of cervix as support. Normal cyclical menses were restored. Steps of the procedure are detailed in this case report.

Article Synopsis
- This study talks about a rare condition where some girls are born without a proper vagina, but their uterus works fine.
- The doctors looked at 16 girls aged 14 to 26 to see how a surgery called utero-colo-vaginoplasty helped them deal with this issue, allowing them to have normal periods and sexual activity.
- While the surgery worked for most, there were some problems for a few, but overall, they enjoyed better health and experiences, even though none of them got pregnant.

Background: Cervical dysgenesis is categorized into cervical fragmentation, cervical fibrous cord, and cervical obstruction. The definitive management for cervical dysgenesis is either uterovaginal anastomosis (UVA) or hysterectomy.
Objective: To compare the prevalence of dysmenorrhea, hematometra, and need for dilatation after UVA with and without postprocedural placement of a levonorgestrel intrauterine system (LNG-IUS).
