Four of these patients (3.4%) had associated ureteric injury, one of whom had bilateral injury. Ureteric obstruction alone was noted in two patients, ureterovaginal fistula alone in one patient, and bilateral ureteric obstruction and ureterovaginal fistula in one patient. All ureteric injuries were managed with simultaneous reimplantation into the bladder at the time of vesicovaginal fistula repair. Five patients had post\u2010radiotherapy vesicovaginal fistula, and the remainder were post\u2010surgical. Three patients with post\u2010radiotherapy vesicovaginal fistula proceeded to primary diversion.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Ureteric injury is far less common than previously reported, occurring in &lt;5% of patients presenting with vesicovaginal fistula.
