[Passerini-Glazel technique of vulvovaginoplasty: a solution for upper outlet of the vagina].
Since 1988, we have performed the Passerini-Glazel technique, in 5 patients, between 7 months and 3 years old. All showed female pseudohermaphroditism with severe signs of masculinization, and consequently, high outlet of the vagina in the urethra, secondary to Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH). The technique use is to get a functional and esthetically acceptable vagina at the expense of a urethral flap and two flaps of skin, coming from the hypertrophic clitoris. The results were excellent in all the patients. In one occasion it was necessary to insert a cylinder of vesical mucous to get a suture without tension of both hemivaginas. In one case there appeared a late vaginal stenosis that was solved with dilations. The present technique is indicated in those cases of CAH, with great testosterone impregnation, in which the vagina ends very high and her primary descent is difficult. It is also indicate in those cases in which there exists the risk of hurting the external sphincter, which would damage the urinary continence mechanism.
