Objective: To document our experience with management of Vesicovaginal Fistula Study Design: Case Series Study Place and Duration: Dept of Urology, DHQ hospital, Rawalpindi from 2005 to 2010 Materials and Methods: Nineteen cases of urogenital fistula developing after delivery, hysterectomy, and obstetric procedures were treated. Depending on site, size, etiology and associated anomalies, fistulas were repaired through vaginal or transabdominal route. Results: The most common etiology was abdominal hysterectomy for benign conditions in 10 (53%) patients. Second most common cause was obstructed labor in 8 (42%) patients while cesarean section was the cause in 1 (5%) patient. Spontaneous closure occurred in 1 case of vesicovaginal fistula. Eighteen patients (95%) were managed surgically. In 15 (83%) patients fistulas were repaired through abdominal approach. Out of these 15 patients extraperitoneal transvesical technique was used in 11 while retrovesical (O'Connor) technique was used in 4 patients. Ureteric reimplantation required in two patients. In 3 (17%) patients fistula was repaired through vaginal approach. There was no mortality following operative procedures. Our success rate was 95%. Conclusion: Any vesicovaginal fistulas irrespective of their size if easily accessible should be repaired transvaginally. High lying small fistula repaired through transvesical and large fistula through retrovesical approach without interposition of omentum or peritoneum gave excellent results.

THE NOUN volvulus has its origin from the Latin verb "volvere" which means "to turn about" or "to roll." During the past one hundred years physicians have created and firmly established the word "volvulus" as a vernacularism common to their profession and without meaning if employed in any other manner. The term is interpreted as describing a process in which a torsion or twisting of a segment of bowel results in an obstruction to the lumen and a disturbance in circulation to the wall of the intestine. Even though volvulus may occur almost anywhere in the gastrointestinal tract, this paper is designed primarily to deal with lesions of the colon. Eight cases of volvulus of the colon, encountered during the past ten years, form a basis for this study. A personal interest in volvulus of the colon was inspired by the rather unique experience of observing 5 of the 8
