Summary
Brief summary
Low urinary tract fistulas is an uncommon complication of pelvic/gynaecological surgery. It presents with urinary incontinence. As it is uncommon, some clinicians may not include this condition in the differential diagnosis of urinary incontinence following surgery. Therefore, some women with this condition may have had a number of investigations with a lag time from symptoms to diagnosis and hence, a delay in treatment of the fistula. This study will review the women's history, antecedent procedure, time of onset of urinary incontinence after surgery, type and number of investigations for the urinary incontinence, time-lag between symptomatology to diagnosis and referral for management. The aim is to provide clinicians with a recommendations for more accurate diagnosis to allow expeditious referral and management of the urinary incontinence due to the fistula.
