Hysteroscopy for vaginoscopy in pediatric gynecology

Abstract

Study Objective: Description of the use of hysteroscopy for vaginal inspection in children.

Design and Participants: Case report of three patients with suspected vaginal injury and/or bleeding.

Setting: The examinations were performed at the Department of OB/GYN University of Medical School of Debrecen, Hungary.

Interventions: Resectoscope with continuous fluid irrigation was used for vaginoscopy to verify the origin of vaginal bleeding and injury.

Result: The method is excellent for vaginal endoscopic examinations in children.

Conclusion: When traditional vaginoscopic examination is impossible, hysteroscopy/resectoscopy with low pressure fluid irrigation can help to verify vaginal disorders.
