Abstract

We describe a 34-year old patient with vaginal agglutination, which presented as inability to have sexual intercourse two years after bone marrow transplantation for myelodysplastic syndrome. The vaginal adhesions were freed surgically after local estrogen therapy and tibolone was started. She was able to have sexual intercourse two months after the operation. In this case report, vulvovaginal complications of graft-versus-host disease and their treatment and prevention are discussed.
