A transperitoneal vesical bivalve technic for the repair of recurrent vesicovaginal fistula is described. Nine patients have been treated successfully with this technic during the past 4 years. Postoperatively, a mild vented suction connected to the suprapubic tube, avoiding a urethral catheter, helps to prevent recurrence of the fistula.
