Abstract
Techniques for including muscle flaps and musculocutaneous flaps in the repair of difficult vesicocutaneous, urethrocutaneous, and vesicovaginal fistulas are described. These methods have been uniformly successful in 10 consecutive patients. The incorporation of such healthy, well-vascularized tissue into the standard techniques of urologic repair can be a major factor in the successful management of these problems.Keywords
