Abstract

Introduction: Transvaginal bowel evisceration following either vaginal or abdominal gynecologic operations is a very rare complication. Furthermore, vaginal cuff rupture with the prolapse of the small bowel through the vagina during sexual intercourse after abdominal hysterectomy in a premenopausal woman is even more rare. However, regardless of the etiology, transvaginal evisceration requires prompt recognition and surgical intervention. Case report: Here, we report a premenopausal woman who developed transvaginal bowel evisceration during the first postoperative intercourse.
