Abstract
Transvaginal evisceration is mostly seen at postmenopausal period in a case who had vaginal operation and at premenopausal period it ensues postcoitally after hysterectomy. A 47 year old patient presented to emergency department with a complaint of intestinal herniation through vagina after coitus that had total ab-dominal histerectomy two months ago. The patient was emergently operated. Her vaginal cuff was sutured transvaginally then laparoscopic irrigation and suction were performed. Although transvaginal cuff repair is sufficient laparoscopic irriga-tion and suction are thought to be relevant for the management of transvaginal evisceration to prevent peritonitis.
