Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Gynecology

Background:

  • Uterovesical fistula is a rare but serious complication, often resulting from surgical procedures or trauma.
  • Accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective management and patient outcomes.

Observation:

  • A case of uterovesical fistula was diagnosed using cystoscopy, vaginoscopy, and ultrasonography.
  • The fistula presented as abnormal passage of urine from the bladder to the vagina.

Findings:

  • Surgical repair (fistulorrhaphy) was performed using a transperitoneal transvesical approach.
  • This surgical intervention successfully resolved the uterovesical fistula and stopped urinary leakage into the vagina.

Implications:

  • The choice between conservative and aggressive surgical management depends on the fistula's anatomical location.
