Abstract

A 50-year-old woman, para 4, suffering from uterine fibromatosis and recurrent menometrorrhagia, underwent vaginal hysterectomy with preservation of salpinges. About 15 days after surgery, hydrosoluble contrast enema showed sigmoidovaginal fistula; after about two months there was failure of surgery repair by the rectal endoscopic technique. A month later, we performed repair surgery by the abdominal approach interposing fallopian salpinges between the sigmoid and the vagina. About two months later, a enema showed absence of fistula and today the women is free from disease.
