摘要: AIM: To describe the normal variations in genital anatomy preschool girls selected for non-abuse. METHODS: A total of 2731 aged 5 or 6 y were invited to take part study; 195 recruited. Inclusion was based on self-selection, whereby parents who did not suspect any occurrence sexual abuse their children gave informed consent participate. Several steps taken exclude abused and with previous accidental injuries. The examination, using a colposcope camera, performed supine position separation traction technique, prone knee-chest position. RESULTS: number anatomical features hymenal measurements described found consistent studies. An important finding outward folding posterior rim many girls, feature that could be difficult distinguish from attenuation hymen. gaping orifice, previously suggested supportive sign abuse, fairly frequently significantly associated large horizontal diameter. CONCLUSION: between hymen those attenuated hymens, we recommend use saline irrigation method. Even though normative measurement data now exist reasonable these should used caution evaluations.
