Abstract:
Vesicovaginal Fistula (VVF) is an abnormal communication between the bladder and vagina. The major causes of vesicovaginal fistula in developing countries are associated with obstructed labour whereas in developed countries, vesicovaginal fistula results from pelvic surgeries. Rarely vesicovaginal fistula may result due to direct trauma to the pelvis. This is a case of 17 years female who presented with the history of fall from tree 5 years back, sustained genital injury and complained of involuntary leakage of urine one month after the incident. She underwent fistula repair with vaginal approach using Latzko technique.
