Abstract
In this work the problem of infibulation in female infants in many parts of the world, with particular regard to some african countries, is discussed. A brief review of the infibulation's origin and its social implications, is given. Attention is paid to both physical and psy-chological complications. Seventeen cases of infibulated women, suc-cessfully operated by the Authors for surgical plastics of disinfibulation, are discussed.
