A patient who underwent surgery for myoma uteri developed a ureterovaginal fistula, leading to urinary incontinence, two years ago. She had a laparoscopic ureteral reimplantation as the repair of the complication.
Her postoperative course was uneventful, and she came for a check-up hoping to monitor her kidney condition regularly.
The urinalysis was normal, and there was no sign of hydronephrosis, which reassured her.
While routine health check-ups would suffice without the need for regular visits, I can sense that the trauma from having experienced such anxiety remains.
I aim to provide compassionate care for iatrogenic urological injuries (such as vesicovaginal fistulas, ureteral injuries, and ureterovaginal fistulas), including diagnosis, treatment, and postoperative follow-up.
