    Author: Ikechebelu JI, Ugboaja JO, Okeke CF.
    Journal: J Obstet Gynaecol Res; 2011 Jul; 37(7):912-5. PubMed ID: 21395899.
    Abstract:
    Vesicouterine fistula (VUF) is a rare complication of cesarean section. We present two cases of VUF that were successfully managed by transperitoneal surgical repair. The first case presented with the Youssef classical triad: cyclical hematuria (menouria), amenorrhea and urinary continence, while the second case presented with total urinary incontinence with normal menstruation. In both cases, diagnosis was confirmed by hysterogram and both were managed by transperitoneal surgical repair. The clinical features, etiologic factors, diagnostic procedures and treatment modalities are discussed in relation to the case and others as reported in the literature.
