Five patients with symptomatic postoperative introital or vaginal stenosis were evaluated and treated. In each case simple operative correction, utilizing basic plastic surgery principles, was successful. The five operative techniques as used alone and in combination are described. Though postoperative stenosis of the vagina and/or introitus is relatively uncommon, the resulting disability is such that every gynecologic surgeon should be familiar with the problem and solution. In most cases simple surgical correction can be successful if the surgeon is familiar with basic techniques and principles.
