Kliniki i Katedry Urologii, Akademii Medycznej w Warszawie.

Eleven cases of vesicouterine fistula were reported. The initial diagnosis was made when urinary incontinence was occurring. The diagnosis was best confirmed by cystoscopy and hysterography, which was positive in 9 cases. The ultrasonographic examinations allow to visualize the fistula in 5 out of 6 cases examined and to establish the diagnosis. If sonographic examination visualizes the fistula, the performing of hysterography is not necessary. The management consists of the cure of the infection of the urogenital tract and abdominal operation based on the excision of the fistula and closing of the bladder and uterus. All operated patients were cured.
