Abstract:
Abstract Background The clitoris is the primary somatosensory organ of female sexual response. Knowledge of its neural anatomy and related landmarks is essential for safe genital surgery. Objectives The aim of this study was to describe the distal course of the dorsal nerves of the clitoris and associated structures. Methods Clitorises of 10 fresh cadavers were dissected. Measurements of the dorsal nerves, suspensory ligament, clitoral body, clitoral hood, and clitoral glans were obtained. The course of the dorsal nerves was examined. Results The dorsal nerves of the clitoris were larger than expected, ranging from 2.0 to 3.2 mm in diameter, on average, along their course in the clitoral body. In 9 of 10 specimens, the dorsal nerves could be traced to within 6 mm of the glans. They traveled deep to a superficial clitoral fascia but superficial to the tunica albuginea, were variably located between 10 and 2 o’clock, and were separated by the deep suspensory ligament (DSL) of the clitoris. The mean length of the descending clitoral body, from the angle to the base of the glans, was 37.0 mm. The mean distance from the pubic rim to the DSL was 37.7 mm. Conclusions The clitoral body is substantial in length, mostly lying superficially under the clitoral hood and mons pubis. The dorsal nerves of the clitoris are large and superficial, terminating at or near the base of the clitoral glans. Knowledge of this anatomy is critical prior to performing surgery near the clitoris.

Abstract:
Introduction. Controversies on clitoral anatomy and its role in female sexual function still make clitoral reconstructive surgery very challenging. We evaluated the role of clitoral anatomic features in female to male sex reassignment surgery.Material and Methods. The study included 97 female transsexuals, aged from 18 to 41 years, who underwent single stage metoidioplasty between March 2008 and January 2013. The operative technique involved vaginectomy, the release of clitoral ligaments and urethral plate, urethroplasty by combining buccal mucosa graft and genital flaps, and scrotoplasty with insertion of testicle prostheses. Postoperative questionnaire was used to evaluate aesthetic, functional, and sexual outcome.Results. The mean followup was 30 months. The mean length of the neophallus was 7 cm, compared to mean preoperative length of the hypertrophied clitoris of 3.3 cm. Complications occurred in 27.84% of all patients, related mostly to urethroplasty. Voiding while standing was achieved in all cases. None of the patients had problems in sexual arousal, masturbation, or orgasms.Conclusion. Accurate knowledge of the clitoral anatomy, physiology, and neurovascular supply is crucial for a successful outcome of female to male sex reassignment surgery. Our approach appears to ensure overall satisfaction and high quality of sexual life.

Abstract:
Clitoral hypertrophy is caused by disorders of sex development and it is observed from birth in most cases. We encountered a patient in whom normal morphology at birth may have acquired deformity and hypertrophy. The patient was a 10-year-old girl with a chief complaint of pudendal deformity. The clitoral hood was enlarged and the clitoris size was 8 x 5 mm on the first examination. Various tests were performed. Sex chromosome or hormonal abnormalities and tumorous lesions were not detected, and the ovaries, uterus, and vagina were normal, indicating that disorders of mullerian development were negative. In surgery, reconstruction of the vulva was performed following the Marberger method. The present case may have been a very rare case of acquired hypertrophy of unknown origin.

Abstract:
Female genital cutting or mutilation refers to the cutting of girls’ external genitalia. Due to migration from contexts where female genital cutting is common, it is estimated that around 38 000 cut women and girls live in Sweden. Clitoral reconstruction, a relatively new form of surgical healthcare offered to women with female genital cutting, was established in Sweden in 2014. This surgery aims at restoring clitoral function and anatomy, but there is yet a dearth of evidence demonstrating the effects of the surgery. The aim of this study was to explore how women undergoing clitoral reconstruction in Sweden between 2016 and 2019 experienced the surgical process and its aftereffects from a physical, sexual and psychosocial perspective. Eighteen women who had undergone clitoral reconstruction at a university hospital in Sweden agreed to participate in the study. The women were interviewed using semi-structured interviews, which were recorded, transcribed and analysed using thematic analysis. The results, based on self-categorization and labelling theory, demonstrated both benefits and disappointments following the surgery. Several women reported positive outcomes in terms of sexual, psychosocial and aesthetic terms. They experienced reduced genital pain, improvements in their sex lives, and a sense of feeling more empowered and at ease in their bodies. Yet, some women reported aesthetic, functional and process-related disappointment related to clitoral reconstruction. Nonetheless, the women expressed gratitude for the possibility of undergoing the surgery. In conclusion, the women reported that they experienced physical, sexual and psychosocial benefits of the surgery.

Abstract:
Background: Granulosa Cell tumors (GCT) are a sex-cord stroma tumor comprising of 1-2% of ovarian malignancies. Derived from Schwann cells, GCTs are comprised of granulosa cells, a cell of the ovarian stroma. Patients with these tumors present with signs of increased estrogen such as vaginal bleeding, irregular menstruation and rarely hirsutism and virilization.8,10-12 The majority of GCTs are found in the skin, subcutaneous tissue and submucosa with a handful of case reports discussing primary GCTs in the clitoris.3,7 Surgery is required for definitive tissue diagnosis and staging. In this case report, we present a case with tissue diagnosis for granulosa cell tumor found on the clitoral hood. Case: A 56-year-old, female, G6P3033 initially presented for evaluation of persistent clitoral cyst for >2 years Initial evaluation was significant for 1 cm clitoral cyst that was firm, smooth and fluctuant with no irregular borders; with worsening vulvodynia. The patient underwent clitoral hood mass excision. The mass was excised entirely and the post-operative recovery was uncomplicated. Pathology findings were significant for completely excised granulosa cell tumor; margins were negative for tumor. Immunohistochemical stain was positive for CD56, CD68, Vimentin, and S-100, and negative for AE1/13, CD31, CD34, SMA, and Desmin. Conclusion: When evaluating chronic, persistent, or recurrent masses, it is important to take into consideration both benign and malignant causes. Definitive diagnosis is established pathologically. Patients with confirmed GCT should be thorough evaluated pre-operatively with blood work and appropriate imaging. Upon diagnosis, patient with GCT should be regularly followed for recurrence and surveillance.

Abstract:
L'altération du sexe des femmes africaines et afropéennes a souvent été appréhendée comme relevant d'institutions culturelles, de conventions, ou encore de normes sociales régissant les rapports sociaux de sexe dans les groupes la mettant en œuvre. Privilégiant plutôt une interprétation en termes de technologie – le dispositif de la lame comme ensemble de discours, pratiques et expériences incorporées – cette thèse étudie le dispositif de la "chirurgie des mutilations" à propos duquel elle se pose deux questions. Quel le devenir du sexe altéré à l'épreuve de la lame ? L'articulation des rapports entre sexualité, corps, violence, réparation et technologie de genre est étudiée dans les pratiques médicales de deux protocoles de chirurgie réparatrice. La médecine s'attelle-t-elle à guérir les femmes des mutilations sexuelles ou à soigner la violence infligée par la lame à leur sexe. Quels sont les enjeux attachés au corps, à la sexualité et à la souffrance des femmes excisées dans l'intérêt singulier que suscitent les mutilations sexuelles dans la société française des époques modernes et contemporaines ? L'exploration d'un vaste corpus de sources manuscrites et d'archives a permis de tracer la construction médicale et anthropologique du Corps Noir Altéré à travers les discours de la médecine au XVIème siècle, des récits de voyage au XVIIème siècle, puis de l'anthropologie raciale du XIXème siècle
The alteration of African and Afropean women genitals has often been seen as a matter of cultural institutions, conventions, or social norms governing gender relations in the groups implementing it. Rather, favouring an interpretation in terms of technology - the device of the blade as a set of embedded discourses, practices and experiences - this thesis studies the device of "mutilation surgery" about which it raises two questions. What is the becoming of the altered sex under the blade proof? The articulation of relationships between sexuality, body, violence, violence, reparation and gender technology is studied in the medical practices of two reconstructive surgery protocols. Is medicine working to heal women from female genital mutilation or to heal gender violence inflicted by the blade? What are the issues related to the body, sexuality and suffering of excised women in the singular interest that sexual mutilation arouses in French society in modern and contemporary times? The exploration of a vast corpus of manuscript sources and archives has made it possible to trace the medical and anthropological construction of the Altered Black Body through the discourses of medicine in the 16th century, travel accounts in the 17th century, and racial anthropology in the 19th century

Abstract:

Between one hundred and one hundred and forty million young girls around the world have reportedly been subjected to some form of genital excision during 2005. Approximately three million young girls are at risk every year of undergoing this harmful procedure (WHO, 2008). Female genital mutilation is reported to occur, and is expected to continue occurring in twenty-eight African countries (London Safeguarding Children Board, 2007). This paper aims to firstly observe the levels of excision in Africa, and then highlight the underlying factors that encourage certain women to continue this dangerous ritual by analysing national datasets, such as the child info database, obtained form the United Nations Children&rsquo
s Fund. By calculating and comparing common indicators, the prevailing ones that dominate FGM appreciation can be further analysed. The final objective will be to suggest strategies that can be put in place to encourage the discontinuation of female genital cutting universally.

Abstract:
Knowledge of the course of the pudendal nerve (PN) is important when performing perineal surgery. Distances between landmarks were measured after PN dissections in 71 cadavers and after perineal procedures on 30 cadavers. Separate inferior rectal nerve (IRN) entry and medial position of the PN/IRN with shortened sacrospinous ligaments were often seen in black individuals. A PN block should therefore be placed more proximally and medially. The Richter’s stitch should be placed further from the ischial spine. During ischioanal procedures the IRN is at risk in white females, as it was more superficial. The dorsal nerve of the clitoris/penis (DNC/DNP) is in danger during the outside-in procedures in white or obese individuals, as it was closer to the inferior pubic ramus. The dorsal penile nerve block should be administered deeper in white and obese individuals, as the DNP was deeper. The above-mentioned findings should be verified in a clinical setting.
