Illegally induced abortions remain a significant public health issue in developing countries. We report a case that was complicated by a vesicovaginal fistula with intravesical calcification of the piece of wood used to perform the illegal abortion.

Objective: This study aims to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare the incidence of specific postoperative urologic complications, such as vesicovaginal fistula and ureterovaginal fistula, in patients undergoing minimally invasive radical hysterectomy (MIRH) versus abdominal radical hysterectomy (ARH) for early-stage cervical cancer.
Data Sources: A comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar up to April 2024.
Method: Comparative studies evaluating postoperative urologic complications following MIRH and ARH were included.

Article Synopsis
- Vesicovaginal fistula (VVF) is a serious complication that can arise after surgeries like hysterectomy, often leading to other issues such as pelvic organ prolapse and a decrease in quality of life for women.
- A case study of a 53-year-old woman with VVF and cystocele demonstrates successful treatment through a single-step transvaginal surgery, which improved her urinary incontinence and overall wellbeing.
- VVF and cystocele post-hysterectomy are uncommon but can significantly affect women's health; this case highlights that one-time surgical intervention can be an effective solution, minimizing the need for multiple treatments.
