Abstract:
Obstetrical anal sphincter injuries (OASIS) can lead to sexual dysfunction. Literature is poor concerning long-term consequences of OASIS on female sexuality. The objective of this paper is to clarify long-term consequences of OASIS on sexual function. Dyspareunia and lubrication troubles are constantly reported based on articles reviewed in literature through Pubmed. Nevertheless, global sexual function seems not to be influenced by OASIS on a long-term basis. Therefore, sexual dysfunctions must be specifically analysed in women's follow-up after OASIS.
