Abstract

Intestinal evisceration through the vagina is rare and transvaginal evisceration after transabdominal surgery is far more rare. We present an unusual case of a postmenopausal woman who presented with transvaginal evisceration of the small bowel after radical abdominal hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy. This was a rare case of terminal ileal evisceration through a ruptured vaginal cuff after radical hysterectomy and bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy. We performed a delayed closure of the vaginal defect through the vagina after manual reduction of the eviscerated small bowel, and the outcome was satisfactory.
