The answer is the second one: vaginorrhaphy.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Vaginoplasty: This term refers to the surgical reconstruction or repair of the vagina. It is not specifically about suturing but rather about reconstructive surgery.

  2. Vaginorrhaphy: This term specifically means the surgical suturing of the vagina. The suffix "-rrhaphy" indicates suturing.

  3. Hysterorrhaphy: This term refers to the surgical suturing of the uterus, not the vagina. The prefix "hystero-" relates to the uterus.

  4. Oophoroplasty: This term refers to the surgical repair of an ovary. The prefix "oophoro-" relates to the ovary, and "-plasty" indicates surgical repair or reconstruction.

In summary, the correct term for "surgical suturing the vagina" is vaginorrhaphy.
