Abstract

Iatrogenic vesicovaginal fistula (VVF) is one of the possible complications after gynecologic operations. However, fistula formation owing to a forgotten foreign body is a rare condition. Infectious complications and subsequent vesicovaginal perforation due to foreign body is difficult to diagnose since it is an unlikely condition. Delays in diagnosis and treatment can lead to serious morbidities and even mortality. This paper aims to discuss a VVF case developed after anterior colporraphy owing to forgotten gauze.
