Objective: To demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of a stepwise robotic-assisted vesicovaginal fistula (VVF) repair following oncologic surgery and adjuvant therapy.
Setting: University teaching hospital.
Participant: A 60-year-old woman with stage IIIC1, grade 2 endometrial carcinoma developed VVF following total laparoscopic hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, sentinel lymph node sampling, and six cycles of carboplatin, paclitaxel, and Dostarlimab.

Background: Women developing genital fistula and undergoing fistula repair in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia are largely of reproductive age, and fistula prevalence is highest in countries with high fertility and where social values are placed on childbearing. Optimizing women's health following female genital fistula and surgical repair requires further understanding of the risks to subsequent pregnancies and how to mitigate them, to enable women to achieve their desired family size without additional morbidity.
Objective: We sought to contribute to the postfistula repair evidence base through estimating rates of spontaneous abortion and stillbirth as well as the associated risk factors of these adverse outcomes in pregnancies following fistula repair.

Vesicovaginal fistula (VVF) in developing countries is mainly associated with obstructed labor, iatrogenic injury during cesarean delivery, and hysterectomy. However, formation of VVF after foreign body insertion into the vagina is an extremely rare phenomenon. We report on an 18-year-old girl from rural northwest Ethiopia who presented with continuous leakage of urine for 2 months.
