ABSTRACT
Vaginitis emphysematosa (VE) is a benign, self-limited condition characterized by a myriad of gas-filled spaces in the subepithelial lining of the vaginal wall, which give it a distinct radiographic appearance. Failure to make the correct diagnosis may lead to an inappropriate course of treatment, including surgery. Although it is considered rare, we have encountered five cases of VE in the course of a year.
