Laparoscopic hysterectomy with intraoperative treatment of vaginal strictures: A case report

Abstract

There is limited data regarding management of vaginal strictures with a concurrent hysterectomy, in all realms, including pre-, intra- and postoperative care. A 44-year-old nulligravid woman with multiple vaginal strictures and clinically suspected endometriosis was evaluated preoperatively and underwent laparoscopic hysterectomy with simultaneous dilation of vaginal strictures without complication. Postoperative care included vaginal estrogens and vaginal dilators. Concurrent vaginal stricture dilation and laparoscopic hysterectomy can be successful and without complication with the use of intraoperative dilation and postoperative estrogens.
