Nine cases of vesico-uterine fistula caused by injury to the bladder at Caesarean section or by rupture of the uterus and bladder following obstructed labour are described.Abstract:
Summary— Nine cases of vesico-uterine fistula caused by injury to the bladder at Caesarean section or by rupture of the uterus and bladder following obstructed labour are described.
Symptoms depend on the level of the lesion, menstruation into the bladder and menouria occurring when the fistula is above the internal cervical os: whatever the level, most patients with vesico-uterine fistula present with incontinence of urine.
A transperitoneal approach appears to give better results than a transvesical repair.read more

Recent advances in robotic surgery in female urology.
TL;DR: Robotic surgery in the management of pelvic organ prolapse and lower urinary tract fistula repairs might offer a promising advancement and benefits, however, further long‐term data should be followed to assess the durability of this newer, and minimally‐invasive approach.

Vesical fistulae into the vaginal vault1
TL;DR: Most of the fistulae were approached per vaginam, but in 37 cases the fistula was fixed high in the pelvis and abdominal repair was therefore preferred, usually by the intravesical route.
