title: Recto-vaginal sex leading to colostomy and recto-vaginal repair.
abstract: Recto-vaginal tears have been described in association with foreign bodies, rape and accidental trauma victims. We describe a case of upper recto-vaginal tear without involvement of perineum or sphincter following consensual heterosexual coitus, which has not been previously reported.
