摘要

Goal: Contribute to improve treatment of patients suffering from urogenital fistula (UGF). Materials and methods: It was a descriptive and prospective study conducted by the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) and the Ivorian government, on treatment of fistulas. The caravan took place on 4 periods of 10 days each and has enabled us to recruit 95 patients in the gynecological emergency department of Bouake’s University Hospital Center (UHC) and from the surgical emergencies departments of the regional hospital centers (RHC) of Man and Bondoukou, in Man from 14th to 23rd of August 2013, then from 24th March to 02nd of April 2014;in Bouaké from 06th to 15th of November 2013 and in Bondoukou from 13th to 22nd of December 2013, respectively. Results: Average age of patients was of 30.8 years. 50 patients were single (52.6%). 44.2% of patients were farmers. In 95.8% of cases it was about obstetrical fistulas of which 52.6% were caused by caesareans. Average duration of delivery labor was of 2.3 days. Vesicovaginal fistulas represented 65.3% of UGF. Suture split were carried out on 90 patients (94.7%). Within 01 month, success rate was of 63.9% for 83 known patients. Conclusion: Incidence of UGF in our country is certainly underestimated. They are mainly of obstetrical origin and treatment relies on sutures split which give satisfactory results.
