Abstract

This video demonstrates surgical repair of a vesicouterine fistula via a robotic, uterine-sparing approach. In this video, we present a vesicouterine fistula, which occurred after cesarean delivery. The patient presented with cyclical hematuria 4 years following delivery. She underwent uterine-conserving robotic repair via excision of the fistula tract through an intentional cystotomy. The uterus and bladder were closed in multiple layers. The patient tolerated the procedure well, and CT cystogram 6weeks following surgery demonstrated no concern for defect or recurrent fistulization. The patient was asymptomatic 9months following her procedure. Repair of a vesicouterine fistula may be safely completed via a minimally invasive approach without need for routine hysterectomy.
