It is a fistula of the cervico-urethral intersection threatening the mechanism of continence. The aim of this study was to describe the epidemiological and therapeutic aspects of this type of fistula. <strong>Patients and Methods:</strong> This was a descriptive retrospective study on patients who have had surgery for cervico-urethral transection from June 01, 2012 to June 01, 2015. <strong>Results:</strong> Cervico-urethral transections (n = 76) accounted for 33.77% of all urogenital fistulas admitted to our department of surgery during the study period. The average age was 25.02 ± 8, 6 years. Married patients accounted for 85.58%, 72.36% had not received any classical education. Fistulas less than one year old made up 56.58% of cases, associated lesions were perineal tears 25.0%, vaginal sclerosis, 21.05%, vaginal straps, 13.15%, rectovaginal fistula, 2.63% and the shortness of the urethra less than 2.5 cm in 42.10% of cases. All surgeries were performed vaginally with a 98.68% fistula closure rate and an average of 1.68 surgeries per patient. After closure of the fistula, 10.67% of patients presented a residual urinary incontinence. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> Complete cervico-urethral transection is a frequent vesicovaginal fistula. She sometimes exposes to urinary incontinence after closing the fistula. The results of his surgery are often good at the cost of multiple intervention.展开更多
