OBJECTIVE: To describe the first dedicated clinic in the UK for children with
suspected or confirmed female genital mutilation (FGM) including referral
patterns, clinical findings and subsequent management. DESIGN AND SETTING: A
prospective study of all children seen in a dedicated multidisciplinary FGM
clinic for children over a 1-year period. POPULATION: Patients aged under 18
years referred for clinical assessment or for a second opinion on Digital
Versatile Disc (DVD) images. METHODS AND MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Data were
collected on reasons for referral, demography, genital examination findings
including FGM type, and clinical recommendations. RESULTS: 38 children were
referred of whom 18 (47%) had confirmed FGM; most frequently type 4 (61%). Social
care and police referred 78% of cases. According to UK law FGM had been performed
illegally in three cases. Anonymous information given to the police led to the
referral of six children, none of whom had had FGM. CONCLUSIONS: Mandatory
reporting and increased media attention may increase the numbers of referrals of
children with suspected FGM. This patient group have complex needs and management
in a dedicated multidisciplinary service is essential. Paediatricians and
gynaecologists should have the skills to carry out the consultation and detect
all types of FGM including type 4 which was the most common type seen in this
series. This is the first dedicated FGM service for children in the UK and
similar clinics in high-prevalence areas should be established.
