Robotic-Assisted Early Repair of Vesicovaginal Fistula in a Colon Cancer Patient: A Case Report and Surgical Technique Video

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to demonstrate the feasibility and technical approach of early robotic-assisted repair of vesicovaginal fistula (VVF) in a colon cancer patient requiring prompt chemotherapy. The case report details a successful robotic procedure that resulted in effective fistula closure without complications, enabling the patient to initiate adjuvant treatment. This highlights the potential benefits of a multidisciplinary robotic approach in similar clinical scenarios, although further research is needed to establish its broader applicability.
