Application of modified laparoscopy in repair of high complex vesical vagina fistula / 中华泌尿外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of modified abdominal laparoscopy in the repair of complex vesical vaginal fistula after total hysterectomy.Methods The clinical data of 58 cases of urinary bladder and vagina fistula in our hospital from April 2014 to December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed,of which 32 cases were repaired by ordinary abdominal laparoscopy from April 2014 to February 2016 and 26 cases were repaired by modified abdominal laparoscopy from March 2016 to June 2017.On the basis of the original laparoscopy,the modified transabdominal laparoscopy enlarged the free range between the vaginal stump and the bladder,separated the anterior vaginal wall from the bladder completely and dissociated the retrovaginal peritoneum,wrapping around the vaginal stump to make the peritoneum.The median age of ordinary group was 52 (range33-67)years old,the median course of disease was 12 (range3-40) months,and the size of fistula was (25.5 ± 10.3) mm.The median age of modified group was 50 (range37-65) years,the median course of disease was 11.5 (range3-36) months,and the size of the fistula was (26.3 ± 9.1) mm.The operation time,bleeding volume,the time of hospitalization,the rate of complications and the success rate of the operation were compared.Results The operation time of the two groups was successfully completed.The operation time of the modified group [(164.2 ± 21.2) min] was significantly shorter than that of the common group [(201.4 ± 25.8) min],and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.01).In the modified group,the cure rate (100.0％,26/26) was higher than that in the normal group (84.4％,27/32,P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in the amount of intraoperative bleeding[50 (10-100) ml vs.55 (5-110) ml],hospitalization time [(9.1 ± 1.7) d vs.(10.0 ± 1.8) d],postoperative infection [19.2％ (5/26) vs.15.6％ (5/32)],urinary incontinence [7.7％ (2/26) vs.9.4％ (3/32)],urinary frequency [15.4％ (4/26) vs.21.9％ (7/32)],intestinal obstruction [3.8％ (1/26) vs.9.4％ (3/32)] between the modified group and common group (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The modified transabdominal laparoscopic mode shortens the operation time,and improves the cure rate of the operation.Satisfactory results are recommended for the repair of high complex bladder vagina fistula.
