{Abstract}: We herein report three cases of obturator nerve injury, which is rare in gynecological surgery. In all cases, it was difficult to suture both nerve ends without tension. Therefore, we used a PGA-collagen tube to interpose the nerve defect. After follow-ups of at least seven months, all three patients were able to adduct the hip joint and medial thigh sensations also improved. These results suggest the potential of a PGA-collagen tube in the treatment of obturator nerve injury.
