It is the second most common cause of primary amenorrhea and may require neovagina creation for sexual function. Laparoscopic Davydov vaginoplasty uses peritoneum to line a neovaginal canal, offering favorable outcomes. Case Presentation: A 19-year-old woman presented with primary amenorrhea and normal secondary sexual characteristics (Tanner P4M4). Examination revealed a ~3-cm vaginal dimple. Imaging showed uterine agenesis with normal ovaries. Laparoscopic Davydov procedure involved creation of a tract between bladder and rectum, mobilization of peritoneal flaps, pull-through to introitus, and cuff formation. Recovery was uneventful; follow-up showed good neovaginal length and tolerance of dilators. Conclusion: Laparoscopic Davydov vaginoplasty is a safe, effective option for MRKH, achieving satisfactory anatomy and function when combined with postoperative dilator use and counseling.
