3D modeling for understanding vaginoplasty surgery
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study is testing whether using a 3D model of the surgical site helps patients better understand vaginoplasty surgery, which creates a vagina. It looks at whether the 3D model improves education and surgical outcomes compared to standard care.

This trial tests a new surgical technique for gender-affirming vaginoplasty that uses a fish skin graft (Kerecis) to create the vaginal lining. It may be an option for transgender women planning this type of surgery for the first time.
This study tests an online decision tool for people considering metoidioplasty or phalloplasty. The tool helps patients compare surgical options to make informed choices.
This study tests a virtual peer support program for transgender and non-binary people who are planning to have vaginoplasty. It aims to see if talking with a trained peer can help with the process.
This study uses MRI scans to see how pelvic structures change after gender-affirming vaginoplasty in transgender women. It may help improve surgical techniques and follow-up care.
This study asks people who are planning genital gender-affirming surgery to report how their genital sensitivity and sexual function feel afterward. It helps doctors understand what changes patients experience and improve follow-up care.
This trial uses 3D computer models of children's tumors to help surgeons plan and perform safer operations. It is for children with tumors in the pelvic area (lower belly) or retroperitoneal area (deep in the back of the belly) who need an MRI or CT scan before surgery.
