Abstract

Female genital mutilation (FGM) is an unusual condition for our country. However, an increase in FGM in future days can be predicted with the increasing numbers of exchange students coming from African countries, migration of refugees and socioeconomic relations with the African countries. We want to share our experience of two FGM victims admitted to our clinic with the request of reconstructive vulvar surgery before their marriage. Both women had WHO Type III FGM. Physical examination findings and surgical reconstruction techniques were presented.

Özet

Kadın Genital Mutilasyonu (KGM) ülkemiz için alışılmadık bir durumdur. Özellikle yabancı öğrenci değişim programları, Afrika ülkeleri ile ekonomik ve sosyal ilişkilerdeki gelişmeler ve artan göçler sonucu ilerleyen günlerde daha sık görüleceğini öngörülebilinir. Kliniğimize farklı zamanlarda başvuran Dünya Sağlık Örgütü (DSÖ) sınıflamasına göre Tip III KGM saptanan 2 vakanın muayene bulguları ve uygulanan cerrahi rekonstrüksiyon teknikleri güncel literatür verileri eşliğinde sunulmuştur.
