An unusual case of Youssef's syndrome (vesicouterine fistula) and its relationship with placenta percreta.
A pregnant lady, on antenatal ultrasound examination, was found to have placenta percreta involving the bladder. After cesarean section, she developed the typical triad of Youssef's syndrome i.e. cyclic hematuria and amenorrhea without vaginal leakage of urine. Cystoscopy showed a vesicouterine fistula which was treated through the transabdominal approach.
