Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome (MRKH) is a rare abnormality of female genitalia, including innate lack of the uterus and/or vagina. In one third of cases, MRKH syndrome is accompanied by other malformations, such as: defects of the urinary system, defects of the skeletal system and growth retardation. A characteristic feature of the MRKH syndrome is the lack of the possibility of vaginal intercourse, which undoubtedly affects the psychosocial sphere of women affected by this syndrome. Present medicine helps to improve the quality of life of patients with the diagnosed MRKH syndrome. The study presents a case of a young woman who has undergone therapeutic treatment aimed at creating the vagina.

Key words: Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome, Davydov-Moore method, vaginal creation.
