RESUMO
We present 4 patients seen in the last five years with urethrovaginal fistulas involving the mid or proximal urethra. Our experience in the transvaginal repair of these fistulas has been disappointing. The best chance for the development of a functioning continent urethra is by suprapubic bladder flap technique or bladder tube replacement with suprapubic urinary diversion. We suggest that no urethral catheter be placed. Complications following surgical repair have been fistula recurrence, urethral shortening and retraction, persistent reflux, bladder calculi, and bladder cancer.
