Casts of the vagina as a means of evaluating structural changes and treatment.

A method of making three-dimensional molds of the vagina with the materials used by dentists for oral impressions gives considerably more information about normal and abnormal anatomic features than other methods of study, including direct viewing, palpation and contrast x-ray studies. The molds are of value in the demonstration of anatomic patterns in relation to normal and abnormal functions, in evaluation of surgical and other therapeutic techniques, in teaching, and in explaining the abnormalities and the aims of treatment to patients. The use of such molds is being applied to the study of pelvic prolapse, urinary stress incontinence, sexual function of the vagina and birth injuries.
