Vaginal lacerations following consensual intercourse, while well described, are uncommon. Presenting symptoms are more commonly vaginal bleeding resulting in significant blood loss or hemorrhagic shock. Perforation into the abdominal cavity resulting in significant infectious etiology has been less described. We present a case of vaginal laceration following consensual intercourse resulting in peritonitis sepsis requiring prolonged hospitalization.
