Urogenital Fistulas: Surgical Management, Outcomes, and Prognostic Factors: A 14-Year Monocentric Experience
Listen to this summary
This study investigates the management and outcomes of urogenital fistulas, particularly vesicovaginal fistulas (VVF), in a tertiary referral center over a 14-year period. The authors found that VVF repair has a high primary success rate of 89.7%, but identified prior radiotherapy, oncological etiology, and longer surgical delays as significant predictors of surgical failure. These findings emphasize the need for early referral and a multidisciplinary approach to improve patient outcomes.
