Abstract: Uterovesical fistula; a least common type of urogenital fistula is a rare complication following caesarean delivery. With patient history and selected investigations the diagnosis of uterovesical fistula is relatively easy. The surgical repair of these fistulae is standard treatment. Meticulous practice of obstetric and surgical principles will prevent the formation of these fistulae. Here we report a case of uterovesical fistula in a 38 year old woman following caesarean section.
