Combined non-circumferential urethrovesicovaginal fistula with severe scar or extensive tissue loss with or without involvement of continence mechanism – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/1465227529

This is a condition characterised by the presence of extensive amounts of fibrous tissue (fibrosis) that have replaced normal tissue associated with a combined urethrovesicovaginal fistula without complete separation of the urethra and bladder, that may or may not have an effect on the part of the nervous system and the muscles which control awareness and volition in voiding (urinary continence mechanism).
