"The vaginal injury was located in the posterior cul de sac in 39 cases and was of 5 cm of length in 56%. Surgical suture was required in 92 out of 98 patients, in combination with local and general antibiotics. Conclusion: Vaginal injuries due to coitus are frequent in our practice and they create serious anatomic lesions. So there is a need to precise the etiopathogenicity (hormonal deficiency ?, infections ?, role of the male partner) and to evaluate the long term sequellas."
