How Are Vaginal Polyps Treated?

Vaginal wall polyps (granulation tissue at the top of the vagina) usually refer to granulation tissue polyps at the apical suture of the vagina after total hysterectomy, which is essentially the product of the wound repair process. Granulation tissue acts as a new matrix and forms 4 days after the appearance of the wound.

Causes of vaginal wall polyps

Vaginal wall polyps are granulation tissue formed by the proliferation of blood vessel walls, fibroblasts, lymphocytes, and histiocytes during tissue repair after hysterectomy.

Clinical manifestations of vaginal wall polyps

Vaginal polyps are usually asymptomatic and there may be a small amount of bleeding or contact bleeding in the vagina. Often in follow-up inspection after surgery, it is found that the suture on the top of the vagina is often a large red mass with rice grains, which can cause a small amount of bleeding.

Vaginal wall polyps examination

1. Blood routine examination.
2. Vaginal discharge examination.
3. Histopathological examination.

Diagnosis of vaginal wall polyps

It is easier to diagnose based on hysterectomy history, clinical manifestations, gynecological examination and histopathological examination.

Differential diagnosis of vaginal wall polyps

Vaginal cancer
Identification of vaginal wall polyps and vaginal cancer.
2. Vaginal prolapse.
3. Fallopian tube prolapse after surgery
Fallopian tube prolapse is a complication after transvaginal hysterectomy and is rare after transabdominal hysterectomy. Touching the prolapsed fallopian tube can cause severe pain, which can be radiated to the patient's waist, and a medical examination can help confirm the diagnosis.

Vaginal wall polyps complications

Complicated infection after contact bleeding.

Vaginal wall polyps treatment

The treatment of vaginal wall polyps is mainly surgical resection, and the removed polyps should be sent for pathological examination.

Prognosis of vaginal wall polyps

May be cancerous.

Vaginal polyp prevention

Regular inspection, early diagnosis and early treatment after total hysterectomy, follow up well, and prevent canceration.
