The utility of Martius fat pad in the repair of urogenital fistulae: review of current evidence.

A UGF repair should be individualised after considering the specific characteristics and complexity of the procedure.

However, MFP may still have a place to maximise outcomes in low-income settings, in select cases with higher (iatrogenic) fistulae, and in most cases with radiotherapy.
