  • Title: Collagen graft interposition in vesicovaginal fistula treatment.
    Author: Robles JE, Saiz A, Rioja J, Brugarolas X, Berian JM.
    Journal: Urol Int; 2009; 82(1):116-8. PubMed ID: 19172110.
    Abstract:
    Vesicovaginal fistula (VVF) is a quite rare complication of gynecological surgery. The first attempt to repair the fistulous tract offers the best opportunity for cure. We report the successful repair of VVF in 2 patients using a combined anterior vaginal approach and porcine dermal collagen grafting as interposition tissue. Favorable results confirm technical simplicity, safety and efficacy of this procedure.
