Abstract

Aim

The objective is to present a case with vesicouterine fistula after cesarean section.

Case

A 27-year-old female patient, G2P2, was admitted to hospital with the complaint of severe crampy pelvic pain and dysuria during micturition without any incontinence. She had two cesarean sections, last was 14 months before admission. Her urinalysis revealed microscopic hematuria. Diagnosis of uterovesical fistula suspected by transvaginal ultrasonography and diagnosed by hysterography. Vesicouterine fistula operated by transperitoneal approach without any complication.

Conclusion

Increasing cesarean section rates concomitantly carries increasing maternal and neonatal adverse outcomes including operative complications as genitourinary fistulae.
