| | Vaginoplasty: AEGIS Advisory |
 | | AEGIS recommends that for primary neovaginal construction in male-to- female transsexual persons, penile inversion, with or without use of a skin graft, should be considered the procedure of choice. |
 | | Sometimes, penile inversion is used in conjunction with split- skin or full-skin grafts (Hage and Karim, 1994). |
 | | However, it is more intrusive than penile inversion, as the abdominal cavity is entered, requires a longer healing period, is more expensive than penile inversion, and has a variety of long-term complications not associated with penile inversion (Hage and Karim, 1994). |
