Infibulation

Infibulation, also circumcervisia (lat. circumcisio circumcisionis - lit. exposure, circumcision), Vaginoplasty for or before clitoral penetration, vaginoperineovaginoplasty, perineovaginopexy.

Infibulation is an operation in which the labia and/or clitoris of a woman are removed and the genital fissure (introitus space) is sutured to the walls of the vagina or to the bottom of the vulva with tissues of the greater omentum or skin from the lower abdomen, as well as by applying a special suture to the neck of the bladder.
