How Transvaginal Vesicovaginal Fistula Repair is performed
In the transvaginal approach, the fistula is often exposed by appropriate retraction. If necessary, the edges of the fistula are freshened, and the vaginal and bladder walls are repaired with layered sutures. Local fat tissue flaps can be interposed to enhance separation and blood supply. At the end of the procedure, a urinary catheter and necessary drainage are placed for decompression.
