Abstract

Objective: To describe the evolution of Utero-Vesical Fistula (UVF) of one patient who received conservative treatment using intravenous (IV) infusion of 120x106 Adipose tissue Mesenchymal Stem Cells (ADMSCs). Clinical case report: A 36-year-old female presented with postcesarean hematuria 3 hours after an emergency c-section was performed consequently to placental abruption during labor. The primary measure was to use a transurethral Silastic 18F Foley catheter to prevent bladder expansion. The catheter remained for 21 days. Evaluation through Computerized Tomography Cystography (Cysto-CT) revealed failure to close the fistula. The decision to inject ADMSCs as an IV single dose was done. Three weeks after this intervention no blood was seen in the urine drainage bag. Complete resolution of UVF was confirmed with a control CT urogram. Result: Total closure of UVF. Conclusions: The IV infusion of ADMSCs proved to be a plausible and effective conservative treatment of UVF.
