Abstract

Labia minora partial or total adhesion is known as labial agglutination. It commonly occurs in postmenopausal or prepubertal women and is accompanied by low oestrogen levels. Due to the high levels of oestrogen in women in the reproductive age group, labial agglutination is uncommon. Due to its uncommon presentation and a unique approach to treatment in this age group, where the patient has been suffering from infancy, we are presenting a case of labial agglutination in a female who is 22 years old. After a comprehensive clinical examination, extensive history-taking and all necessary laboratory and imaging tests, we were able to make the right diagnosis, which was then treated with expert surgery. Her abnormal vestibular structure was treated with this method without any complications. Patient was treated by surgery i.e. labial adhesiolysis under vaginoscopic approach using our standard hysteroscope light and camera. Labial adhesion can be treated both medically and surgically however treatment is individualized in every case ranging from medical treatment to minimally invasive surgery or invasive skillful surgery.
