Conclusion:
Young women less or uninstructed, likely with poor income are
late to attend health services.They develop UGF in a prolonged and obstructive
delivery most of time at home.
Negative Socioeconomic and clinical impacts on the woman with
long term untreated UGF have been found.
Surgical management of UGF succeeds but women are ought to be
assisted free of charge. Hence the need of trained personnel and 2-3 special
fistula units in Rwanda to train doctors in this technique and let them work in
several district hospitals.
