This short report will review hypergranulation after vaginoplasty, including risk factors, identification, and treatment options such as douching, silver nitrate, and topical steroids.CONCLUSION:
By increasing clinicians' knowledge of this pervasive complication, patients' postsurgical care and outcomes can be improved.
