Fístulas vesicouterinas. nuestra experiencia tras 25 años

Abstract

The vesicouterine fistula, despite being infrequent, is no longer an exceptional diagnosis. Currently, the low segmentarian caesareans constitute the major isolated risk factor for fistula development. We recommend a deferred surgical repair without discarding a conservative approach for those cases of small and early fistula.

Fetus in the Bladder: Rare Complication of Vesicouterine Fistula

“…This condition is very rare and accounts for 1% to 4% of all urogenital fistulas, including vesicovaginal fistula, ureterovaginal fistula, and urethrovaginal fistula [1, 2]. The most common causes of this problem are considered to be iatrogenic injuries resulting from Cesarean section, use of vaginal forceps, as well as cervical dilation and uterine cavity curettage abortion [3–5]. The more rare causes of this type of fistulas include embolization of uterine arteries, vaginal birth after previous Cesarean section, migration of intrauterine devices, placenta percreta, and endometriosis.…”

Vesicouterine Fistula (VUF) as a Rare Urogenital Complication Managed with Delayed Surgical Repair: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

“…Fertility after VUF repair is still a subject of considerable concern. It should, nonetheless, be noted that reported pregnancy rates after VUF surgical repair are encouraging, ranging from 25 to 37.5% [ 7 , 9 , 18 , 19 ]. However, our patient was not willing to undergo a third delivery.…”
