    Imperforate hymen is an uncommon obstructive anomaly of the female reproductive tract, which usually presents with intermittent and cyclical abdominal pain. Although it is usually sporadic, four cases of familial occurrence of imperforate hymen have been reported so far. Imperforate hymen is seldom associated with complications if it is detected early. In view of the possible familial occurrence, it is important to have a high index of suspicion in women who present with imperforate hymen. A detailed menstrual history of other female family members is necessary to enable early detection.

    INTRODUCTION: The aim of this systematic review is to compare the vaginal erosion rates in different synthetic materials used in suburethral slings in Tension Free Vaginal Tape (TVT-O /TOT) procedures in management of female stress urinary incontinence.

    METHODS: PRISMA 2009 framework was adopted for study design. Scholarly literature search was done using MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library and Clinical Trials.gov using selected keywords. Five articles fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Our main outcome of interest is to review the ideal properties of the suburethral sling, procedure of insertion and post-surgical complication following the sling insertion primarily vaginal erosion. Results were compared using one way-ANOVA test and independent T- test.

    RESULTS: Total of 1725 subjects were available for analysis in the five studies. Monofilament polypropylene constituted 92.5% of the total sample size from one study alone. Polyester (n= 16/51) causes higher incidence rate of vaginal erosion compared to monofilament polypropylene (31.4 vs., 4.7; p = 0.01). There was no difference in the vaginal erosion rate between monofilament polypropylene and multifilament polypropylene (4.7 vs, 14.1; p=0.055) as well as between multifilament polypropylene and polyester (14.1 vs, 31.4; p=0.068). Although there was a marginally lower rate of vaginal erosion in TVT-O over TVT, the difference was not significant. (5.6 vs., 6.4, p=0.468). Common presentations of vaginal erosion were vaginal discharge, perineal pain and dyspareunia.

    CONCLUSION: Given the limited sample size, polyester sling material appears to cause higher rates of vaginal erosion. No difference in erosion rate was seen between TVT and TVT-O.

    We report a case of rare, Mullerian vaginal cyst with intracystic haemorrhage in the absence of endometrial components. To date, this is the second case reported in the literature. A 51-year-old post-menopausal woman with history of anterior vaginal wall cyst was misdiagnosed to have cystocele. The cyst was excised and the content was old blood mixed with mucous. Histopathological examination revealed a Mullerian vaginal cyst without endometrial component. Thus, diagnosis and management of vaginal cyst was revisited and discussed.

    A 59-year-old post-menopausal lady who had returned from a pilgrimage to Mecca about a month earlier presented with a three days' history of profuse vaginal discharge. Neissseria meningitidis was isolated from high vaginal swab specimens taken from her on 2 occasions, five days apart. Her symptoms disappeared without treatment after two weeks. We conclude that although the organism may have been a colonizer, it is possible that it was responsible for the self-limiting genital infection in this patient.

    Profuse bleeding after voluntary sexual intercourse is an uncommon reason for admission to the gynaecological wards. Out of 12 such patients admitted to the Ipoh Hospital over a three-year period, one patient had life-threatening upper vaginal injury after coitus. Blood replacement and conventional suturing failed to arrest the bleeding. Bilateral internal iliac artery ligation promptly arrested further haemorrhage. Vigorous intercourse increases intra-abdominal pressure in women causing tensing of the cul-de-sac, decreasing the elasticity of the posterior fornix, resulting in vaginal laceration. Bilateral internal iliac artery ligation produces a 'pelvic compartment hypotension' converting a high arterial flow system to that of a low one resembling venous flow. The useful role of this procedure to contain pelvic haemorrhage is discussed.

    Major perineal injuries following obstetrical complications represent difficult problems of reconstruction. We describe 2 such patients with perineal injuries simulating infantile cloacas. Surgical repair using an abdominoperineal pullthrough procedure in 1 patient, and a Bricker loop type of repair in another resulted in successful restoration of function in both. The operative details and basis for the reconstruction are described.
