This review investigates the quality and content of published reports relating to labial surgery for well women. Electronic databases were searched for relevant articles between 1950 and April 2009. Forty articles were identified, 18 of which included patient data. The specification of the study design was unavailable in 15 of the 18 papers; the remaining three were retrospective reports. No prospective, randomised or controlled studies were found. All reports claimed high levels of patient satisfaction and contained anecdotes pertaining to success. Medically nonessential surgery to the labia minora is being promoted as an effective treatment for women's complaints, but no data on clinical effectiveness exist.
本综述调查了已发表的有关女性阴唇手术的报告的质量和内容。电子数据库检索了 1950 年至 2009 年 4 月期间的相关文章。确定了 40 篇文章，其中 18 篇包括患者数据。18 篇论文中有 15 篇未说明研究设计的具体情况；其余 3 篇是回顾性报告。未发现前瞻性、随机或对照研究。所有报告均声称患者满意度高，并包含成功的轶事。对小阴唇进行医学上非必要的手术被宣传为治疗女性抱怨的有效方法，但没有关于临床疗效的数据。
