Uterocutaneous fistula is a rare pathology that commonly occurs following uterine surgeries, endometriosis, chronic infection, malignancy, and foreign bodies. Many diagnostic and management strategies have been practiced. In this case series, we describe three cases of uterocutaneous fistula following cesarean and myomectomy, which was diagnosed clinically, confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging, and managed successfully by surgery with fertility preservation.
