Abstract

Vesicovaginal fistula with stone is an infrequent condition; therefore, it can be often misdiagnosed. The formation of vaginal stones is mainly due to urinary stasis and infection. We describe the case of a 69-year-old patient who was diagnosed with a vesicovaginal fistula in 2012. The etiology of the disease was related to supravesical amputation of the uterus and radiation therapy. 9 years later a medium-sized stone was found in the fistula. This type of case is rare in practice. The final diagnosis can be made together with gynecologists based on the results of pelvic computed tomography.
