Overview

Endoscopic repair improves outcomes in vesicovaginal fistula, suggesting a new surgical approach.

Key Points

  • Evaluate the effectiveness of endoscopic transurethral repair for vesicovaginal fistula.
  • Seven patients with small-sized vesicovaginal fistula underwent endoscopic transurethral repair.
  • Surgery was performed under anesthesia with peri-fistula dissection using Collin's knife and resectoscope.
  • Sutures were placed per urethrally using compact cystoscope or uniportal spine endoscope.
  • Five out of seven patients had successful surgical outcomes.
  • Two patients failed the procedure due to technical complications and inadequate tissue viability.
  • The mean operative time was 96 minutes, with hospital stays averaging 2–3 days.
