It results from an especially difficult childbirth and leaves women unable to control urine and feces. There are different types of fistula repair like Vesico-vaginal fistula (“VVF”) is a hole that develops between the vagina and the bladder, and recto-vaginal fistula (“RVF”) is a hole that develops between the vagina and the rectum. Both VVF and RVF are the result of prolonged obstructed labor when a woman is unable to delivery her baby safely and cannot access a cesarean section. The constant pressure of the baby’s head against the mother’s pelvic bone causes the tissues to disintegrate between the vagina and the bladder and/or between the vagina and the rectum. Hospitals of fistula repair surgery in India are gaining popularity all over the world due to its world class medical facilities and cheap cost of the fistula repair surgery in India.

Descriptions of urinary fistulas have been well described as early as ancient times by Hippocrates and Rufus. In developed countries, the most common cause of vesicovaginal fistula is gynecologic surgery (eg, hysterectomy). Obstetric trauma resulting in fistula formation is most common in underdeveloped countries. Although he was not the first to perform a surgical repair for vesicovaginal fistula, it is described as a surgical approach using 3 surgical principles of fistula repair as follows: (1) excise all scar tissue, (2) obtain fresh margins, and (3) close the tract without overlapping suture. Transabdominal and transvaginal are commonly chosen surgical approaches for the correction of vesicovaginal fistula. Historically, the site of the fistula often dictated the surgical approach. Supratrigonal fistulas (fistulas above the interureteric ridge) typically were approached transabdominally. Infratrigonal fistulas (fistulas below the interureteric ridge) were corrected transvaginally.Most surgeons prefer the transabdominal approach for both the supratrigonal and infratrigonal fistulas because access to the fistula is easier. Supratrigonal fistulas are more difficult to reach transvaginally. Currently, the transvaginal approach is preferred because it is a less morbid procedure. The transvaginal approach is the safest and most comfortable for the patient. However, if the fistula site is difficult to access transvaginally, transabdominal route remains a safe alternative.  A fistula   recognized within 3-7 days after the operation may be repaired immediately by either a transabdominal or a transvaginal route. Fistulas identified after 7-10 days postoperatively should be monitored at periodic intervals until all signs of inflammation and induration are gone. Before embarking on fistula repair, the fistula tract should be well epithelialized and the vaginal wall should be soft and supple.
