Abstract
Background: Straddle injuries are known for causing lacerations, ecchymoses and abrasions to the external genitalia, including the mons, clitoris and labia. Impalement injuries can also cause trauma to the vagina, anus, rectum and peritoneal cavity as well as the external genitalia. Injuries to the hymen often raise the suspicion of sexual abuse. We present a case of an alleged straddle injury resulting in an isolated hymenal laceration.
