Surgical Management of Youssef ’s Syndrome: A Case Report

We describe a case report of a woman who developed a delayed Youssef’s syndrome 3 months after her third Cesarean section. She was initially post-operatively treated conservatively and successfully for a bladder leakage through the wound with a bladder catheter for 1 month, and 2 months late r, she developed symptoms as described above. She was successfully treated with uterus-sparing surgical fistula repair. Youssef’s syndrome is a rare and atypical presentation. Physicians may easily be misled and diagnosis delayed. We describe the diagnostic approach and review the literature as to therapeutic approaches.Urol Int
