A rare but troublesome complication of cesarean section: the uterocutaneous fistula. Report of two cases and review of literature.

Objectives: The occurrence of a uterocutaneous fistula (UCF) as an uncommon and severe complication of caesarean section (CS). The aim of this study was to describe two cases of UCFs after CS and to discuss about symptoms, diagnosis and treatment.Cases presentation: Both women few days after CS had surgical site infection, fever and elevation of lab inflammation markers. bacterial culture of the wound drainage was positive for Escherichia Coli and Enterococcus Faecalis.Conclusions: Fistula between uterine and skin is a rare condition but should be considered with signs of inflammation after cesarean section; 2D/3D ultrasound evaluation appears to be useful for diagnosis of UCFs when combined with CT fistulography and MRI in order to obtain early dianosis and, consequently, a conservative surgery.
