Vaginal pedicled flap for closure of vesicovaginal fistula.
A 22-year-old woman presented with chronic urinary tract infections and was found to have an ectopic ureter. Repair involved ligation of the distal ectopic ureter via a vaginal approach. She developed an iatrogenic vesicovaginal fistula which was repaired with a vaginal pedicled flap.
