Abstract |
We report a case series study on five patients who underwent combined transurethral and transvaginal approaches to repair their vesicovaginal fistulas. All of them had failed the previous surgical treatments for their fistulas. Combined transurethral and transvaginal approaches successfully repaired their vesicovaginal fistulas, with minimal intraoperative bleeding and rapid postoperative recoveries. All the clinical symptoms had resolved. Bladder saline infusion tests and cystogram examinations confirmed the successful closure of their fistulas. Follow-up examinations up to one and a half years showed no return of clinical symptoms. Combined transurethral and transvaginal approaches could be successfully applied to patients who failed previous surgical treatments for the vesicovaginal fistula, when the fistula was smaller than 3cm and was located more than 0.5cm from the ureteral orifice.
