One of the main difficulties of vaginoscopy is continuous leakage of distension medium from the introitus hindering proper visualization. This study evaluates the effectiveness and success of performing diagnostic or operative vaginoscopic surgery via a tight self-retaining external vulvar sheet (Darwish sheet) expressed as tight vaginoscopy (TV) compared with conventional vaginoscopy (CV).
