Laproscopic intravesical vesicovaginal fistula repair after removal of an old vaginal drain tube-a rare case
The management of vesicovaginal fistula is difficult and challenging We are presenting a rare case of a 24-year-old unmarried girl with history of vaginoplasty and multiple surgeries done in the past, with a vaginal drain tube kept for 12 years and a Vesicovaginal fistula at the bladder trigone. Patient was successfully treated with a laproscopic Intravesical vesicovaginal Fistula repair. As advances in understanding the etiology of VVF have been made, the laproscopic approach has become the gold standard. Laparoscopy allows an excellent view, good exposure of pelvic structures, provides direct access to the fistula and for repair of complex VVF that may not be amenable to vaginal repair
Laparoscopic Myomectomy: Methods to Control Bleeding
Most of the surgeons find it difficult to perform myomectomy when it bleeds during the procedure as it becomes difficult to get into the correct plane of dissection. If this bleeding or blood staining of tissues is prevented it will be easier to get into the correct plane of dissection. In several studies, it is found that bilateral uterine artery ligation, at origin, does not interfere with future fertility as the end vessels and collaterals of the uterus are not interfered with. As no energy source is used to incise the myoma once Vasopressin has been used, the myomectomy scar integrity is better, as noted by various surgeons
