A total of 36 patients (16.8 percent) underwent some form of reoperation. The most commons minor postoperative complications were granulation tissue (20.5 percent) and introital stricture of the neovagina (15.4 percent) and the major complications included urethral meatus stenosis (20.5 percent) and hematoma/excessive bleeding (8.9 percent).

During this period, 214 patients underwent penile inversion vaginoplasty.
