Which medical term means suture the vulva?
A) episisectomy
B) episiorrhea
C) episiorrhaphy
D) episiotomy
C
Explanation: Episi/o means vulva and -rrhaphy means suture; therefore, episiorrhaphy means suture the vulva. Episisectomy is not a correctly spelled medical term. -rrhea means discharge; hence, episiorrhea means discharge from the vulva. -otomy means cutting into, so episiotomy means cutting into the vulva.
