Abstract

Vesicouterine fistula is a rare complication of cesarean section. Most patients present early postoperatively, while others are seen months later with urinary incontinence. Recurrent urinary infections, menstruation through the bladder (menouria), secondary infertility and amenorrhea are less common reasons for consultation. Although more than 100 such cases have been described, there have been few reports on fertility after surgical cure of the fistula.We report 4 cases of a vesicouterine fistula after cesarean section. The first patient was treated nonoperatively and the other 3 patients were treated surgically. Three patients had normal pregnancies after resolution of the problem. The clinical features, etiological factors and treatment modalities are discussed.
