Title: Transvesical and transabdominal closure of vesicovaginal fistulas. Author: Pintér J, Fehér M, Szokoly V, Varga A. Journal: Acta Chir Hung; 1988; 29(2):143-9. PubMed ID: 3051814. Abstract: Between 1973 and 1985, a total of 46 patients were operated for vesicovaginal fistula. Depending on the extension and localization of the fistula, transvesical or transperitoneal closure was performed. In 12 patients ureteral neoimplantation was made. Fistula recurrence was observed in 6 cases. Based on their favourable experience, authors recommend this surgical solution for the closure of fistulas adjacent to the ureteral orifices and/or for that of larger fistulas.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
