Use of pedicled omental graft as an aid to vesicovaginal fistula closure.
J Surg Pak Jan ;7(1):28-30.

To determine the role of omental graft in the outcome of vesicovaginal fistula (VVF) repair, a prospective study was conducted from June 1997 to June 2001 in Obstetrics & Gynaecology Department of Bahawal Victoria Hospital, Bahawalpur. Twenty six patients with VVF were included in the study. All were having the symptoms of uncontrolled passage of urine vaginally. Thirteen patients were having history of prolonged obstructed labour with cephalic presentation. Six patients developed this complaint after caesarean hysterectomy and 7 patients after failed earlier repair. All the fistulae healed successfully and no recurrence was seen with the technique of pedicled omental graft (POG).
