The portions discharged are preserved in the Milan Hospital.
The injuries received during coitus have been classified by Spaeth as follows: Deep tears of the hymen with profuse hemorrhage; tears of the clitoris and of the urethra (in cases of atresia hymenis); vesicovaginal fistula; laceration of the vaginal fornices, posteriorly or laterally; laceration of the septum of a duplex vagina; injuries following coitus after perineorrhaphy.

In the last century Plazzoni reports a case of vaginal rupture occurring during coitus.

Green of Boston; Mann of Buffalo; Sinclair and Munro of Boston, all mention lacerations occurring during coitus.

There is an instance recorded of extensive laceration of the vagina in a woman, the result of coitus with a large dog.

Haddon and Ross both mention cases of rupture of the vagina in coitus; and Martin reports a similar case resulting in a young girl's death.
