Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Gynecology
  • Surgical Complications

Context:

  • Vesico-uterine fistulas are rare but serious complications following caesarean sections.
  • This study reviews cases treated over a significant period (1965-1999).
  • Diagnosis involved a combination of clinical history, radiological imaging, and cystoscopy.

Purpose:

  • To present observational data on vesico-uterine fistulas resulting from caesarean sections.
  • To describe the diagnostic methods used for these fistulas.
  • To report on the treatment outcomes, including surgical approaches and recovery rates.

Summary:

  • Fourteen women diagnosed with vesico-uterine fistulas post-caesarean section were treated.
  • Diagnostic procedures included medical history, radiological investigations, and cystoscopy.
  • While 3 patients underwent hysterectomy, the remaining 11 had their uterus preserved, achieving complete recovery after the initial surgery.

Impact:

  • Highlights successful surgical management strategies for vesico-uterine fistulas.
  • Demonstrates the feasibility of uterus preservation in many cases, preserving reproductive potential.
  • Provides long-term data on managing a specific obstetric complication.
