Acute peritonitis due to introital stenosis and perforation of a bowel neovagina in a transsexual.

Obstet Gynecol. 2001 May;97(5 Pt 2):828-9

Authors: Liguori G, Trombetta C, Buttazzi L, Belgrano E

BACKGROUND: Stenosis of the neovagina is a late postoperative complication of male-to-female sex reassignment surgery when patients do not have frequent sexual intercourse or do not perform vaginal dilation. CASE: A 39-year-old male-to-female transsexual who had sex reassignment surgery, in which a segment of sigmoid colon was used for neovagina construction, developed total introital stenosis and subsequent peritonitis caused by bowel perforation of the colon conduit. CONCLUSION: To avoid stenosis of the neovagina, an inflatable silicon vaginal stent should be used all day for 30 days, then for 3 months overnight or until sexual function is regular.

The TS-Si Research Service consolidates information on research initiatives and findings relevant to the misalignment of brains and anatomical sex. The service tracks key scientific and medical developments from early consideration of research opportunities and published findings through practical application in clinical settings.

Researchers and students from qualifying institutions regularly receive special emailings from TS-Si that consist of abstracts and other materials that support their interest areas.
