The cells are expanded in vitro and seeded on scaffold and matured - The final Tissue Engineered Vagina (TEV) is implanted into the native vaginal site
Healthy volunteers accepted: No
Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.
Inclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria
biologic Tissue Engineered Vagina (TEV), which provides an epithelial layer for the luminal aspect and a smooth muscle layer for protecting the openness of the hollow tube, mimicking the cellular orientation and architecture of the vagina. Autologous cells isolated from vagina/vulva remnants offset any potential for immunological rejection.
Time frame: Month 36
bleeding, pain, visceral injury, vaginal scarring, contraction, or infection
Time frame: Baseline
The Quality of Life Scores (QOLS) is scored by adding up the score on each item to yield a total score for the instrument. Scores can range from 16 to 112 - the higher score indicates the higher quality of life

The Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) is a multidimensional measure of female sexual functioning with 19 items that have ordinal, Likert- type response formats and are scored from 0 (or 1) to 5. The scoring algorithm sums items on each domain/sub-scale and then scales the sums so that each subscale has a maximum score of 6 - The FSFI is a survey measuring the sexual functioning of women in six different domains: desire, arousal, lubrication, orgasm, satisfaction and pain - Higher scores indicate better functioning
