An autologous-engineered vaginal replacement would significantly improve quality of life for people born with this condition. The aim of this study was to critically review literature on the current state of tissue engineering for vaginal reconstruction in a pediatric population. An electronic literature search was conducted using PubMed for articles describing pediatric vaginal tissue engineering from January 2003 to December 2020. Nine studies met inclusion criteria and were reviewed. The model, methods, cell type and source, scaffold type, and time of analysis and evaluation were compared. Three studies used\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">in vitro<\/jats:italic>\n                    and six used an\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">in vivo<\/jats:italic>\n                    design. Of the six\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">in vivo<\/jats:italic>\n                    studies, one was able to investigate autologous vaginal epithelial cells in human clinical trials. This review discusses the current knowledge and progress of vaginal tissue engineered replacements that can potentially be used as a basis for both future preclinical animal and clinical human studies.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Impact statement<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The current methods of treatment for congenital vaginal anomalies leave room for improvement.
