Repair of colonic neovaginal stenosis using a biological graft in a male-to-female transgender patient.
Article in International urogynecology journal, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introduction and hypothesisOne in 2900 genotypical men report gender dysphoria, and many undergo gender confirmation surgery to match their physical phenotype to their identity. A variety of surgical techniques are used in male-to-female transgender patients, one of which is bowel vaginoplasty, and postoperative stenosis of the colonic neovagina is common. Extracellular matrix grafts have been used in vaginal reconstruction. with porcine urinary bladder matrix (UBM) acting as a scaffold for smooth-muscle tissue and matrix regeneration. The aim of this surgical video is to describe the use of a UBM biological graft in repair of introital stenosis due to recurrent granulation tissue in the colonic neovagina of a male-to-female transgender patient.
methodsA 32-year-old male-to-female transgender patient with a history of rectosigmoid neovagina formation for genital gender confirmation surgery 12 months prior presented with genital granulation tissue and stenosis of her neovaginal introitus. Despite two surgical revisions, the patient developed recurrence of granulation tissue and obliteration of the neovaginal introitus, preventing sexual function of the neovagina.
resultsReconstruction of the neovaginal introitus was performed using UBM. The patient noted improvement in comfort, hygiene, and quality of life following the procedure. This video describes our surgical technique and perioperative clinical findings.
conclusionsWe report the novel use of UBM biological graft in the revision of a neovaginal introitus after former rectosigmoid vaginoplasty in a male-to-female transgender patient.
