ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To investigate the clinical efficacy of human acellular allogeneic dermis (HADM) in the repair of urinary fistula. 【Methods】 The clinical data of 12 female patients with complex vesicovaginal fistula treated during Jun.2021 and Nov.2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients’ average age was 47.3 years, ranging from 38 to 56 years. The body mass index (BMI) ranged from 16.6 to 25.2, with an average of 21.3. HADM was inserted between vagina and bladder wall fistula to repair fistula in all 12 patients. 【Results】 All operations were successful. After the operation, the vaginal urine leakage stopped and the urinary tube was retained for 2 weeks. During the postoperative follow-up of 1 to 16 months, no recurrence or complication were observed. 【Conclusion】 Transvaginal HDMA is an ideal surgical method in the treatment of complex vesicovaginal fistula, which has advantages of small trauma, fast recovery and high success rate.
ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the outcomes of transvaginal repair and transabdominal repair for complex vesicovaginal fistula (VVF).Methods The data of complex VVF patients undergoing surgical repair in Peking University First Hospital were retrospectively collected between January 2009 and December 2016.The surgical modalities for complex VVF included transvaginal repair with layered closure and transabdominal repair with full thick vascular peritoneal interposition.The subtype distribution of complex VVF in transabdominal repair group and transvaginal repair group were recorded.The present study included 63 complex VVF patients with the median age of 46 years (range 26-60 years).There were 32 cases undergoing transvaginal repair with layered closure and 31 cases undergoing transabdominal repair with full thick vascular peritoneal interposition.The proportion of cases having failed previous repairs was significantly higher in transvagical repair group (30/32 vs.23/31,P =0.034).Compared with patients with transvaginal repair,patients with transabdominal repair tended to have multiple VVF without statistic significance (18.8％ vs.29.0％,P =0.338).Patients with transabdominal repair had larger VVF than patients with transvaginal repair (median:1.0cm vs.0.5cm,P ＜ 0.001).Results There were 2 cases suffering from fat liquefaction of surgical incision and 1 case suffering from adhesive intestinal obstruction in patients undergoing transabdominal repair.In the median follow-up duration of 24 months (range 8-102 months)and 29 months (range 8-78 months),the successful rates of transvaginal repair and transabdominal repair were 75％ (24/32) and 93.5％ (29/31).Severe lower urinary tract symptoms occurred in one patient who had urine leakage after transabdomnal repair.The bladder volume of patients in transabdominal group recovered at postoperative 3-6 months.Conclusions In consideration of surgical invasion and fistula condition,transvaginal repair with layered closure and transabdominal repair with full thick vascular peritoneal interposition should be performed individually for complex VVF.Meanwhile,the surgeons need pay attention to other perioperative management.
