Vaginal-Laparoscopic Repair (VLR) of Primary and Persistent Vesico-Vaginal Fistula: Description of a New Technique and Surgical Outcomes.

The main aim of our study was to describe the surgical technique and evaluate the feasibility, efficacy and safety of a vaginal-laparoscopic repair (VLR) of iatrogenic vesico-vaginal fistulae (VVF). Between April-2009 and November-2017, we retrospectively reviewed all clinical, radiological and surgical details of surgery for benign or malignant disease and ended up with VVF. All patients were diagnosed by CT urogram, cystogram and clinical test.
