Many trials are detailed in the literature to avoid these complications. Our goal was to examine the benefit of \u2018endovaginal\u2019 sonography during a laparoscopy\u2010assisted Vecchietti operation to avoid bladder injuries. <jats:italic>Methods.<\/jats:italic> A neovagina was created in 15 women with MRKH syndrome by the method of Vecchietti assisted by laparoscopy. The method was modified with the use of \u2018endovaginal\u2019 sonography, in order to reduce bladder and rectal injuries. The vaginal ultrasound transducer, placed in front of the vaginal dimple, can guide penetration from the perineum into the peritoneal cavity. With this technique, the narrow space between the bladder and rectum can be well identified. <jats:italic>Results.<\/jats:italic> All operations were successful, without any complication, forming a well\u2010functioning 8\u201310 cm long neovagina, allowing easy introduction of two fingers in all cases, and with good quality of sexual life for the couples. <jats:italic>Conclusion.<\/jats:italic> Creation of a neovagina by any method in MRKH syndrome may sometimes result in injury of the bladder or rectum due to the narrow space between the bladder and rectum. The placement of the endovaginal ultrasound transducer in front of the vaginal dimple seems to be a promising method to avoid these complications during a laparoscopy\u2010assisted Vecchietti operation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1080\/00016340701622674","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,9,23]],"date-time":"2007-09-23T02:18:36Z","timestamp":1190513916000},"page":"1231-1235","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["The
