Brief summary

In France, one in 4500 women is affected by the MayerRokitantskyKüsterHauser (MRKH) syndrome which is characterized by the absence of uterus at birth. Currently, the only solutions for these patients are: * Gestational surrogacy, prohibited in France * Adoption * Resignation Uterine transplantation could become a good alternative. This study is conducted in 10 patients with MRKH type I syndrome, who will be transplanted from a living donor uterus
