the fistula depending on its size may cause mucous and flatus and faeces to escape into the vagina. prolonged and repeated stretching may cause the walls of the vagina to be weak in some instances. there may be a cystocele on the anterior wall and rectocele on the posterior wall depending on the side affected.
chemical injuries such as burns may cause scar tissue formation in the wall of the vagina leading to difficulties in stretching , which is normally required for childbearing and coitus.
mechanical injuries may be penetrating and involving relative structures such as the anterior wall of the uterus and the bladder which may result in a vesico-vaginal fistula causing urine to leak constantly into the vagina. injuries that involve the posterior vaginal wall and rectum may result in vrcto-vaginal fistula
