Vesicovaginal fistula is a free communication between the urinary bladder and the vagina. The urine from the bladder freely flows into the vaginal vault, leading to total or continuous incontinence. Ureterovaginal fistula is a communication between the distal ureter and the vagina. The urine from the ureter bypasses the bladder and flows into the vagina. This also results in total or continuous incontinence.
What are the causes for double fistula?
Obstetric trauma and delays in receiving obstetric care are the most common causes of urinary fistulae in medically underserved countries. In developed countries, more than 50% of such fistulae occur after hysterectomy for benign diseases such as uterine fibroids, menstrual dysfunction, and uterine prolapse.
The acute onset of urinary incontinence occurring shortly after a hysterectomy should raise suspicions for vesicovaginal or ureterovaginal fistulae. If vesicovaginal or ureterovaginal fistula is suspected, as an immediate step, collection of vaginal fluid should be encouraged so that it can be sent for fluid creatinine measurement; a fluid creatinine level significantly higher than that of a simultaneous serum creatinine level confirms that the fluid is urine. In addition, a methylene blue dye test is a reliable way to establish the diagnosis of vesicovaginal fistula. [3] Cystoscopy with bilateral retrograde pyelogram is necessary for the diagnosis and differentiation between ureterovaginal and vesicovaginal fistula. A double dye test may also be useful for differentiating vesicovaginal and ureterovaginal fistulae.
