dc.description.abstractFemale genital mutilation (FGM) remains a source of abuse to females despite efforts to eradicate it. We present a cases series of two clitoral cysts and one each of post-mutilation haemorrhage, labial adhesion and excess crural flap. One of the victims intended to circumcise her daughters for cultural reasons but rescinded the decision after counseling and education. FGM is a continuing abuse, individual perception does not depend on the degree of complication experienced and there is need for increased education and enlightenment on its dangers.en_US
