Vaginoplasty

The project aims to address both clinical and relational gaps in transgender surgical care by improving understanding, communication, and outcomes through this novel integration of personalized 3D technology. The hypothesis is that using 3D models of patient specific anatomy will enhance patient understanding and education into how peritoneal vaginoplasty is done, while also improving surgical planning and therefore outcomes by decreasing OR time and reducing complication rates. The investigators seek to foster stronger physician-patient relationships by improving communication and shared decision-making, ultimately helping transgender patients feel more empowered, engaged, and willing to seek care in the future.
