The aim of this prospective study was to investigate the association of type III female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C) and de-infibulation with immediate maternal and neonatal outcomes. Women with type III FGM/C were compared with women with type I or II FGM/C or no FGM/C. Only uncomplicated singleton, full-term pregnancies with the fetus in vertex presentation were included. There was a greater frequency of postpartum hemorrhage and the use of mediolateral episiotomy in women with type III FGM/C. Mediolateral episiotomy was associated with a reduced rate of any spontaneous perineal laceration as well as third-degree and fourth-degree lacerations in women with type III FGM/C who underwent de-infibulation.

女性生殖器切割和产科结果。

这项前瞻性研究的目的是调查 III 型女性生殖器切割 (FGM/C) 和去锁骨与母婴直接结局的关系。将 III 型 FGM/C 女性与 I 型或 II 型 FGM/C 或无 FGM/C 女性进行比较。仅包括无并发症的单胎、足月胎儿在顶点出现的妊娠。III 型 FGM/C 女性产后出血和会阴中外侧切开术的使用频率更高。会阴内侧切开术与任何自发性会阴撕裂伤发生率降低以及接受去锁骨术的 III 型 FGM/C 女性的三度和四度撕裂伤发生率有关。
