[Orifice dyspareunia: the surgeons point of view].

Various organic lesions can give rise to superficial dyspareunia. Easily surgically treated, they must be recognised: 1) minor hymenal abnormalities: cribriform, microperforate, septate, fleshy or hyperelastic hymens; 2) vaginal abnormalities: longitudinal or transverse septum; 3) post obstetrical or post operative vulvar outlet stenosis; 4) sexual trauma: tears of the vestibular fossa or hymenal tears; 5) stenosing lichen sclerosus, lichen planus, bowenoid papulosis and Bowen's disease; 6) focal vestibulitis associated with more or less obvious psychological outcomes.
