[ XXXX during coitus: 98 cases].

@entity1 @entity2338 @entity130
We have undertaken a prospective study of @entity130 due to coitus with the aim of evaluating their incidence, risk factors and anatomic lesions. Over a period of 39 months, 98 cases were found, giving a monthly incidence of 2.5. The @entity1 had a mean age of 25 years, were paucipara in more than 50%. Sexual abstience was found in 72 cases with a mean duration of 6 months. This injury occurred more often in gynecological period than in the postpartum (77 cases versus 22). During sexual intercourse the most harmful position was when the @entity1 was in dorsal decubitus with maximum flexion and abduction of the limbs. The @entity130 was located in the posterior cul de sac in 39 cases and was of 5 cm of length in 56%. Surgical suture was required in 92 out of 98 @entity1 , in combination with local and general antibiotics. CONCLUSION: @entity130 due to coitus are frequent in our practice and they create serious anatomic lesions. So there is a need to precise the etiopathogenicity ( @entity2338 ?, infections ?, role of the male partner) and to evaluate the long term sequellas.
