There are a variety of surgical conditions impacting the canine vagina and vestibule that require access through a caudal approach. A standard vertical episiotomy involves making an incision beginning ventral to the anus and extending ventrally through the dorsal commissure of the vulva and into the lumen of the vestibule and distal vagina. The objective of this study was to determine if complex vaginal procedures could be performed via a transverse perineal approach, thus eliminating the need to incise and reconstruct the vulva as performed in a standard episiotomy, and to evaluate the feasibility of vaginal resection with vulvar-sparing vestibular urethrostomy using this transverse approach.

Some skin tumors can extend beyond their clinical appearance. This presents an additional challenge, especially when the affected area is the genital region, which is more difficult for both the patient and the physician to access and monitor due to its location and anatomical characteristics. The treatment of these lesions is complex, and literature postulates Mohs surgery as the best therapeutic option.
