Abstract
The purpose of this work was to evaluate the results of three campaigns to support women victims of obstetric or non-obstetric fistulas. This is a retrospective and descriptive study of a series of 58 patients operated on during three campaigns for the management of urogenital and rectovaginal fistulas (February 2016, January 2017 and June 2021). All women with urogenital or rectovaginal fistula after questioning and physical examination were included. Fistula concerned 94.8% of housewives. At the time of diagnosis, 41.4% of our fistula patients were between 11 and 25 years old, with an age at first marriage of 11 to 20 years in 94.8%. Married women accounted for 79.3%. The births took place in 41.4% at home and were spontaneous in 55.2%. The repair techniques used were fistulorrhaphy by low or high way in 91.4%. The healing rate of closed and dried fistula was 62.1%.
