A New Film for Safe Fistula Surgery



A new film about safety in fistula surgery.



Obstetric fistula is one of the most devastating and serious injuries that can occur during childbirth. It affects between 50,000 and 100,000 women each year, mainly in low-income countries, and it is estimated that more than 2 million women live with untreated fistula in Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa alone. Women who experience obstetric fistula not only risked death during delivery, but they also continue to suffer incontinence, shame, social segregation, and health problems. These women’s lives can be transformed by reconstructive fistula surgery provided in a safe surgical and safe anaesthesia environment.
