    Author: Walker KF, Dasgupta J, Cust MP.
    Journal: Int Urogynecol J; 2011 Oct; 22(10):1333-4. PubMed ID: 21468736.
    Abstract:
    Vaginal pessaries are safe, simple and effective treatment for pelvic organ prolapse. However, they must be fitted and followed-up correctly as serious complications can arise when pessaries are neglected. In this case report, we present the first reported case of a urethrovaginal fistula due to a neglected shelf pessary.
