Abstract:
A 3.5-year-old girl had a persistent, foul-smelling, blood-tinged vaginal discharge. She was initially treated for recurrent and persistent vulvovaginitis, which resulted in no improvement. Vaginoscopy revealed an intravaginal foreign body, which was removed successfully by hysteroscopy. We believe hysteroscopy is safe, convenient, effective, and easy to perform, even in a child.
