ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Prostato-perineal fistula is a rare abnormality. We present a simple endoscopic technique to manage this complicated problem. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
We report on a 34-year-old man with a prostato-perineal fistula after multiple surgeries for imperforate anus. The patient underwent an endoscopic injection of polytetrafluoroethylene and autologous fat in the fistulous tract.RESULTS:
Two endoscopic procedures with the injection of polytetrafluoroethylene and autologous fatty tissue around the prostatic urethral orifice were necessary to occlude the fistula.CONCLUSIONS:
The endoscopic injection of polytetrafluoroethylene and autologous fat was an easy, well tolerated and long lasting solution in this patient.
