Abstract:
Vaginal vault dehiscence with evisceration is a rare but a potentially life-threatening complication of total hysterectomy that requires prompt recognition, diagnosis, and management. The overall incidence of vaginal vault dehiscence is 0.53%. The mortality rate increases to 5.6% when bowel evisceration is present. We report a case of vaginal vault dehiscence with small bowel evisceration complicated by bowel necrosis and intra-abdominal haemorrhage in a 48-year-old woman following her first sexual intercourse 4 months after her total abdominal hysterectomy.
