“…In this communication, in line with recommendations, we primarily present the results from the studies deemed to have the highest internal validity with respect to the question of benefit and harm. These were 13 comparative studies with 4743 participants: four retrospective case series with two or more groups, two prospective cohort studies with two or more groups, one controlled before‐and‐after study, and six uncontrolled before‐and‐after studies . The remaining 49 studies were non‐comparative studies (case reports, case series, cross‐sectional studies; Table S1).…”

“…On defibulation performed outside of pregnancy or labour, nine references were identified: four research articles; one guideline; three expert opinions; and one case report . On clitoral reconstruction, ten relevant references were identified: five research articles; and five expert opinions, guidelines, or commentaries . Twelve studies on the role of healthcare providers were identified …”

“…Clitoral reconstruction is a relatively new surgical technique that involves the resection of the scar covering the clitoral stump, sectioning the suspensory ligament, removing the fibrosis surrounding the mobilized stump, and repositioning it as a neoglans . The technique described first by Thabet, and by Foldès, reduced clitoral pain and improved pleasure in about 40% of 841 women.…”

“…Outcomes were evaluated in four studies, by empiric scales, from an aesthetic point of view, and only in one case at 1 year post surgery . This operation is covered by health insurance in France, and is becoming increasingly advertised in the Western world and in some African countries, in spite of debates and concerns about its potential psychophysical harmful consequences . The surgery is often seen as a way of promoting female completeness and supporting gender identity, rather than improving sexual pleasure …”

Female genital mutilation (FGM) includes procedures involving the partial or total removal of the external female genitals for non-therapeutic reasons. They can have negative psychosexual and health consequences that need specific care. In this paper, we review some key knowledge gaps in the clinical care of women with FGM, focusing on obstetric outcomes, surgical interventions (defibulation and clitoral reconstruction), and the skills and training of healthcare professionals involved in the prevention and management of FGM. We identify research priorities to improve the evidence necessary to establish guidelines for the best multidisciplinary care, communication, and prevention, and to improve health-promotion measures for women with FGM.Keywords Clitoral reconstruction, defibulation, female genital cutting, female genital mutilation, female genital mutilation/ cutting, obstetric outcome.

“…The surgical outcome of clitoral reconstruction is reported in a few published case series with short-term follow-up, ranging from 1 to 12 months postoperatively [ 2 – 5 ], as well as in a recent comprehensive systematic review [ 10 ••]. Postoperative complications ranged from 5 to 15%.…”

Purpose of the ReviewThe aim of this review is to give an overview of the recent evidence on clitoral reconstruction and other relevant reconstructive plastic surgery measures after female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C).Recent FindingsRecent publications present refinements and modifications of the surgical technique of clitoral reconstruction along with reconstruction of the labia majora and clitoral hood. Novel approaches with reposition of the clitoral nerve, anchoring of the labia majora, fat grafting, and full thickness mucosa grafts have been introduced. The current evidence on outcomes of clitoral reconstruction shows potential benefits. However, there is a risk of postoperative complications and a negative outcome. Experts in the field advocate for a multidisciplinary approach including psychosexual counseling and health education with or without subsequent clitoral reconstructive surgery.SummaryThe evolution of reconstructive treatment for women with FGM/C is expanding, however at a slow rate. The scarcity of evidence on clitoral reconstruction halters availability of clinical guidelines and consensus regarding best practice. Clitoral reconstruction should be provided by multidisciplinary referral centers in a research setting with long-term follow-up on outcomes of postoperative morbidity and possible benefits.
