dc.description.abstractFourth-degree perineal tear occurs in up to 0.2% of vaginal deliveries. In limited resource communities, women often deliver in local villages without facilities to repair obstetric anal sphincter injuries. These fourth-degree tears heal by secondary intention and result in total perineal defects. The aim of the study is to present medium-term follow-up of a large number of women following repair of chronic fourth-degree tear.en_US
