摘要：
The invention is a flared vaginal stent comprising a cylinder with a flared, grooved tip. The flared tip has a partially flat surface and a curved opposite surface. The stent is designed to mimic the shape of the human vagina and is used to display the front and back surfaces of the vagina so as to facilitate placement and attachment of a graft to the full length of the anterior and posterior walls of the vagina. The flare is designed to flatten out the proximal vagina, in keeping with the natural flared shape of the proximal vagina. The flat surface is designed to allow suture placement for the full length of the vagina for attachment of the graft anteriorly. The curved posterior surface is designed to highlight the posterior surface of the vagina to aid suture placement on the posterior (underside) of the vagina.
