“…She stated that she had recurrent urinary tract infections, which may be a presenting complaint of a vesicouterine fistula 11 . However, when dealing with these patients, it is important to consider a history of sexually transmitted infections, particularly pelvic inflammatory disease 3,10 . Overall, there is a need for faster methods of detection to prevent further life‐threatening complications and to provide better quality care for patients.…”

“…Although the fetus initially showed signs of life in this case, the overall outcome of the pregnancy was similar to our case. Sapre et al 3 also reported a case with an early gestational age, in addition to a previous cesarean section. Truzzi et al 8 reported a unique outcome in their case, as the patient had a history of salpingectomy performed 8 years before the event.…”

This case report describes the presentation, diagnosis, and surgical management of a rare vesical ectopic pregnancy in a 36‐year‐old woman with a history of multiple cesarean sections. The patient presented with symptoms of suprapubic pain, fever, and amenorrhea. An initial ultrasound indicated retained products of conception, leading to a preliminary diagnosis of septic miscarriage. However, subsequent rescanning revealed an empty uterus and a non‐viable fetus within the bladder, connected to the uterine cavity. Cystoscopy confirmed the presence of fetal parts inside the bladder. Finally, a laparotomy was performed and the fetus was removed from the bladder with repair of the underlying uterovesical fistula. An uneventful postoperative period ensued. The literature review revealed only four previously reported cases with similar overall presentations. This case highlights the importance of considering vesical ectopic pregnancies in patients with a history of cesarean sections and unusual symptoms, as prompt surgical intervention is crucial for ensuring successful management of the condition.

Vesicouterine fistula is a rare condition. Its incidence, however, has been increasing due to the higher incidence of cesarean sections. The presence of a live fetus inside the bladder who passed through a vesicouterine fistula is an extremely rare situation. We report a case of woman who underwent two previous cesarean sections, was referred to a hospital due to mild pelvic pain and genital bleeding. At the moment, physical examination was normal. Ultrasound scan revealed a gestational sac inserted into the anterior wall of the uterus, with a living fetus of approximately 13 weeks, with active body movement and normal heart rate inside it. The fetal abdomen, around the waist, was stuck at the opening of a vesicouterine fistula, so that the fetal head and trunk were entirely into the bladder cavity, while lower limbs remained at the uterine cavity. Laparotomy was performed, the fistulous tract was excised, the fetus (without heart beating) was removed on opening the bladder, and the uterine cavity was emptied. The defects in the bladder and uterus were repaired. The postoperative period was uneventful. A live fetus inside the urinary bladder is a rare condition the continuation of pregnancy is unlikely and the vesicouterine correction can be made by the time of surgical intervention.
