Concurrent vesicoperitoneal and vesicovaginal fistulae.

概要
Although rare in the USA, vesicovaginal fistulae are usually associated with postoperative complications. Even more rarely seen, vesicoperitoneal fistulae can also present postoperatively. Both types of fistulae pose as diagnostically challenging and can be difficult to manage. We describe a case report of a patient with both vesicovaginal and vesicoperitoneal fistulae after a laparoscopic-assisted vaginal hysterectomy who presented with abdominal pain and anuria. Cystogram and outpatient cystoscopy were imperative in the diagnosis. She was conservatively managed with continuous bladder drainage via indwelling catheter resulting in an ideal recovery without requiring reoperation.
