Abstract：The clinical manifestations of female congenital vaginal atresia were complicated. A classification was developed by Peking Union Medical Hospital, type Ⅰ: partical atresia, type Ⅱ: completed atresia, which should help in congenital vaginal atresia diagnosis and treatment. Trachelectomy and uterus-neovagina anastomosis (LuohuⅢtechnique) was used to treated patients with type Ⅱ vaginal atresia, which can relieve symptoms and restore fertility. Laparoscopic vaginal section and vaginoplasty with hyphemia cyst wall and peritoneum (LuohuⅣtechnique) was used to treated patients with typeⅠvaginal atresia, which surgically restored a patent outflow tract and preserved fertility. Preoperative imaging examination was of great importance to classification of congenital vaginal atresia and to the choice of treatment. Selecting the appropriate timing of operation in the treatment play a key role. Patients were instructed to dilate the neovagina each day for a period with vaginal mould. Medical intervention was used in patients with endometriosis. Its long-term performance in pregnancy and labor need to be assessed in the further.
