ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the application of the paries anterior vagina U shape muscularis mucosal flap for the repairing of female complicated urethrovaginal fistula. Methods Fifteen complicated urethrovaginal fistulas patients resulted from severe pelvic frac-ture and with history of failing repairing urethrovaginal fistulas were analyzed retrospectively. The mean diameter of maximum urethrovagi-nal fistula was approximately 2.3 cm. The parias anterior vagina U shape mucosal flaps were used to repair the urethrovaginal fistulas, and the paries anterior vagina muscularis mucosae were used to cover the fistulas surface again. Results Fifteen patients were followed up for 6 to 80 months, and they gained normal voiding, with no urine leakage, urinary incontinence and urethra] stricture occurring. Conclusion The paries anterior vagina U shape mucosal flap is an effective technique for repairing complicated urethrovaginal fistula.
