First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will test whether using 3D-printed models of a patient's own anatomy helps transgender individuals better understand peritoneal vaginoplasty surgery. Twenty adults seeking vaginoplasty at the University of Chicago will receive personalized 3D models to aid in education and surgical planning. The goal is to improve patient knowledge, reduce surgery time, and lower complication rates.
