Objective: This paper aims to evaluate the success rate of vesicovaginal fistula (VVF) repair surgery by transvaginal (TVAG) and transabdominal (TPA) procedure.
Method: Literatures were searched on the online database, PUBMED and Google Scholar. All of the studies should be belonging on to inclusion criteria. The literatures had qualitative analyze by the authors and bias criteria based on Review Manager 5.3 application. It also had quantitative analyzed by the same application.
Results: The literatures have 191 patients (transvaginal-n=107; transabdominal-n=84). The data was homogen (Chi2<df; P>0,05). Then, at the forest plot, transabdominal should be the prefer method. However, the accumulative data has no significant effect statistically (test overall effect P>0,05; 95%CI was 0,59 to 5,30).Conclussion: Transvaginal and transabdominal procedure have similar success rate. Transvaginal should be the first option, until there are others indication to have transabdominal.
