RESUMO

The aim of this case report is to show the advantages of the extraperitoneal cesarean section (ECS) approach in a pregnant patient with multiple previous abdominal transperitoneal colon surgeries and Crohn's disease. A pregnant nulliparous woman with Crohn's disease was admitted for delivery. After delivery, a large rupture and lesion of the rectum was observed. Suturing of the vagina, rectum and sphincter was performed by an abdominal surgeon. Because of a very large and irregularly shaped rectum rupture, the patient underwent infraumbilical medial laparotomy and sigmoidostomy. After 18 months, the patient started to experience vaginal discharge and Y-shaped rectovaginal fistula was confirmed. Surgical reconstruction was performed. The patient's second pregnancy began one year later. At 38 weeks of pregnancy, elective extraperitoneal cesarean section was performed. A healthy newborn was delivered. Follow-up showed full and fast recovery after the ECS. In cases of pregnant women who have had multiple colon surgeries, gynecology surgeons can choose to perform an ECS to avoid transperitoneal entrance into the abdomen. ECS avoids lysis of postoperative adhesions after repetitive gastrointestinal surgeries, the formation of new adhesions by lysis of the old adhesions, and most importantly, the possibility of colon or small intestine lesions during lysis of dense or firm adhesions.

RESUMO

Rectovaginal fistula (RVF) is an abnormal connection between the rectum and the vagina. At present, the principle method for RVF is surgery. With a variety of surgical methods, clinicians still lack a generally recognized consensus on RVF. Therefore, based on latest evidence from literature and expert experience, the Clinical Guidelines Committee of Chinese Medical Doctor Association Anorectal Branch organized domestic experts in anorectal surgery and gynecology to discuss the etiology, classification, diagnosis, treatment and special types of rectovaginal fistula of RVF, through questionnaires and expert seminars. "Chinese experts consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of rectovaginal fistula (2022 edition)" was produced in order to deepen the understanding of RVF, and to provide a standardized treatment for RVF in order to reduce the failure rate of surgery.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: The rectovaginal fistula (RVF) is a type of female ARM in which the rectum terminates in the vagina. Due to its rarity, there are limited reports on its presentation, management, and follow-up. This paper deals with the clinical presentation, management, and outcome of RVF. METHODS: It was a retrospective cohort study of 10 years. The patients were evaluated for age, clinical presentation, associated anomalies, any prior surgical interventions performed elsewhere, and complications. After workup, the patients underwent three stages of surgery. RESULTS: Fifty-six patients of RVF were managed. The median age was 13.48 months. The associated anomalies were present in 37 (66%) patients. Posterosagittal and anterosagittal anorectoplasty (PSARP and ASARP) were performed in 29 and 6 patients, respectively. Abdominoperineal pull-through (APPT) was performed in 16 patients of congenital pouch colon. The complications of the first stage included stomal stenosis (4) and stomal prolapse (3). Constipation was present in 39 patients 2 years after the third surgery. CONCLUSIONS: RVF is a distinct entity, which needs careful clinical examination. With proper planning for diagnosis and treatment, it can be managed at specialized centers. Care may be needed for the associated anomalies. The follow-up is an integral part of its management.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the long-term results of surgical correction of H-type fistula in girls with a normal anus. MATERIAL AND METHODS: There were 7 patients with rectovestibular fistula and 3 patients with rectovaginal fistula with a normal anus were observed from 2014 to 2019 in the Surgical Department No. 1 of the Russian Children's Clinical Hospital. Upon admission, all patients underwent genital examination, vaginoscopy, rectal examination and probing the fistulous canal, irrigography, abdominal and retroperitoneal ultrasound. They were also examined by a gynecologist and genital smears were obtained. Surgical treatment was determined depending on the height and diameter of the fistula for each child. One patient underwent perineal fistulectomy, three patients - anterior anorectoplasty. Invaginated fistula extirpation, abdominoperineal proctoplasty and perineal fistulectomy using a pad flap between the defects were used in two cases, respectively. Patients were followed-up for the period from 6 months to 1 year after the last recurrence. Follow-up examination, irrigography and functional examination of sphincter were performed. RESULTS: Two (20%) patients did not require redo surgery. In 6 (60%) cases, recurrences didn't occur within a year after the second surgery, in 2 (20%) cases - after 3 operations. Recurrent H-type fistula appeared after 3 of 4 perineal fistulectomy procedures, 3 of 9 anterior anorectoplasty, 2 of 2 abdominoperineal proctoplasty and 2 of 3 invaginated fistula extirpation. Hypotension of internal anal sphincter and neo-rectal ampulla, recurrent vulvovaginitis were diagnosed in 2 patients in 6 months after anterior anorectoplasty. CONCLUSION: We recommend anterior anorectoplasty and perineal fistulectomy using a pad flap between the defects for the treatment of H-type fistula to minimize the risk of recurrence.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To assess the impact of type of surgery for colorectal endometriosis-rectal shaving or discoid resection or segmental colorectal resection-on complications and surgical outcomes. DATA SOURCES: We performed a systematic review of all English- and French-language full-text articles addressing the surgical management of colorectal endometriosis, and compared the postoperative complications according to surgical technique by meta-analysis. The PubMed, Clinical Trials.gov, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases were searched for relevant studies published before March 27, 2020. The search strategy used the following Medical Subject Headings terms: ("bowel endometriosis" or "colorectal endometriosis") AND ("surgery for endometriosis" or "conservative management" or "radical management" or "colorectal resection" or "shaving" or "full thickness resection" or "disc excision") AND ("treatment", "outcomes", "long term results" and "complications"). METHODS OF STUDY SELECTION: Two authors conducted the literature search and independently screened abstracts for inclusion, with resolution of any difference by 3 other authors. Studies were included if data on surgical management (shaving, disc excision, and/or segmental resection) were provided and if postoperative outcomes were detailed with at least the number of complications. The risk of bias was assessed according to the Cochrane recommendations. TABULATION, INTEGRATION, AND RESULTS: Of the 168 full-text articles assessed for eligibility, 60 were included in the qualitative synthesis. Seventeen of these were included in the meta-analysis on rectovaginal fistula, 10 on anastomotic leakage, 5 on anastomotic stenosis, and 9 on voiding dysfunction <30 days. The mean complication rate according to shaving, disc excision, and segmental resection were 2.2%, 9.7%, and 9.9%, respectively. Rectal shaving was less associated with rectovaginal fistula than disc excision (odds ratio [OR] = 0.19; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.10-0.36; p <.001; I2 = 33%) and segmental colorectal resection (OR = 0.26; 95% CI, 0.15-0.44; p <.001; I2 = 0%). No difference was found in the occurrence of rectovaginal fistula between disc excision and segmental colorectal resection (OR = 1.07; 95% CI, 0.70-1.63; p = .76; I2 = 0%). Rectal shaving was less associated with leakage than disc excision (OR = 0.22; 95% CI, 0.06-0.73; p = .01; I2 = 86%). No difference was found in the occurrence of leakage between rectal shaving and segmental colorectal resection (OR = 0.32; 95% CI, 0.10-1.01; p = .05; I2 = 71%) or between disc excision and segmental colorectal resection (OR = 0.32; 95% CI, 0.30-1.58; p = .38; I2 = 0%). Disc excision was less associated with anastomotic stenosis than segmental resection (OR = 0.15; 95% CI, 0.05-0.48; p = .001; I2 = 59%). Disc excision was associated with more voiding dysfunction <30 days than rectal shaving (OR = 12.9; 95% CI, 1.40-119.34; p = .02; I2 = 0%). No difference was found in the occurrence of voiding dysfunction <30 days between segmental resection and rectal shaving (OR = 3.05; 95% CI, 0.55-16.87; p = .20; I2 = 0%) or between segmental colorectal and discoid resections (OR = 0.99; 95% CI, 0.54-1.85; p = .99; I2 = 71%). CONCLUSION: Colorectal surgery for endometriosis exposes patients to a risk of severe complications such as rectovaginal fistula, anastomotic leakage, anastomotic stenosis, and voiding dysfunction. Rectal shaving seems to be less associated with postoperative complications than disc excision and segmental colorectal resection. However, this technique is not suitable for all patients with large bowel infiltration. Compared with segmental colorectal resection, disc excision has several advantages, including shorter operating time, shorter hospital stay, and lower risk of postoperative bowel stenosis.

RESUMO

Recto vaginal fistula can be secondary to various and multiple causes. However, intercourse is an exceptional cause. The objective of this work is to expose its clinical, therapeutic and prognostic particularities. We report the case of rectovaginal fistula in a 29-year-old patient, following consensual sex. She underwent posterior colpoperineorraphy under spinal anesthesia, with a favorable outcome. Post-coital recto vaginal fistula is a stigmatizing pathology responsible for polymorphic complications. Prompt care can improve quality of life and the obstetrical prognosis of the patient.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To describe epidemiologic, anatomic and clinical characteristics of urogenital and rectovaginal fistula and the issue of their surgical management in Togo. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A retrospective study permit us to collect the operated cases during five years in the national center of obstetrical fistula. The parameters evaluated were sociodemographic aspects of patients, clinical characteristics and the issue of surgical repair. RESULTS: The number of patients who enderwent surgery was 197, during 217 surgical interventions. The middle age of patients was 40,7 years with extrems of 18 and 70 years. The main causes of fistula were obstetrical (95%) and 3,5% were caused by surgery. Concerning anatomoclinic characteristic, vesicovaginal fistula was the most comon type representing 87,3%, where vesicouterine fistula represented 4,1%. Multiparity has been a risk factor for obstetrical fistula and ceasarien section was necessary in 70% with a high rate of fœtal mortality (88,2%). Surgical management was late in majority of cases, estimated at 10 years between occurrence of fistula and its reparation. The recovry rate was 78,1%. CONCLUSION: Urogenital fistula are principaly caused by obstetric conditions in Togo and multiparity is a risk factor. Treatment is often late but has a good rate of recovery. Their prevention goes through the fight against dystocia. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Anti-cancer therapy put patients in an immunocompromised status. Reactivation of cytomegalovirus (CMV) in immunocompromised patient can cause a severe disease. Thus, we presented a case who had recurrent CMV colitis which complicate with rectovaginal fistula. METHODS: We present a case of everolimus-associated cytomegalovirus colitis on a patient receiving everolimus and exemestane therapy for the treatment of metastasized breast cancer. RESULTS: The patient presented septic shock and acute peritonitis at first. Emergency exploratory laparotomy was performed. However, only edematous changes were observed over the terminal ileum, sigmoid colon and rectum. Four weeks after operation, we found feces coming out from her vagina. Colonoscopy was done and revealed rectovaginal fistula. Colonic and rectal mucosa moderate inflammation with multiple ulcer was also noted. Biopsy was done and the pathology proved CMV colitis. After treatment with ganciclovir, her symptoms improved. Everolimus was stopped for 12 weeks and was added back with a decreasing dose paradigm for breast cancer treatment. However, another episode of CMV colitis occurred again after resuming the everolimus. After anti-virus treatment, she was discharged. Due to adverse effects, everolimus therapy was discontinued. CONCLUSION: The standard treatment of hormone receptor positive and HER-2 negative metastatic breast cancer is everolimus together with exemestane. Due to the immunosuppressive effects of everolimus, the medication may cause invasive fungal infection or other opportunistic infections. Such infections are serious and may even be fatal. In this case, we did not consider CMV infection until rectovaginal fistula formation. Thus, for solid cancer patients presented with fever of unknown origin, clinicians should consider potential complications of CMV infection.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND/AIM: The reported incidence of rectovaginal fistula is very low. Although some case reports have described surgical procedures, no systematic approach to the treatment of rectovaginal fistula according to diagnostic image and colonoscopy findings has been proposed. We present a comprehensive surgical strategy for rectovaginal fistula after colorectal anastomosis according to diagnostic image and colonoscopy findings. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This retrospective study included 11 patients who developed rectovaginal fistula after colorectal anastomosis. Rectovaginal fistula was classified into 4 types according to contrast enema images and colonoscopy findings, i.e., "Alone type", "Dead space type", "Anastomotic stricture type", and "Dead space and Anastomotic stricture type". The surgical strategies were "Diversion (Stoma)", "Percutaneous drainage", "Anastomotic stricture type", "Endoscopic balloon dilation", "Curettage of foreign bodies", "Simple full-thickness closure", "Split-thickness closure", "Pedicled flaps packing", and "Reanastomosis". The surgical strategy appropriate for each rectovaginal fistula type was investigated. RESULTS: Among "Alone type" cases, 5 (71.4%) healed with "only Diversion (Stoma)". "Alone type" cases (n=11) and all other cases (n=4) healed with "only Diversion (Stoma)" (n=5) or any other method (n=6) (p=0.022). CONCLUSION: For treatment of rectovaginal fistula after colorectal anastomosis, less invasive treatment approaches should be attempted first.

RESUMO

The formation of an advancement rectal flap could be technically demanding in the presence of high perianal of rectovaginal fistula, and the outcomes could be frustrated by the inadequate view, bleeding and a poor exposure through the standard transanal approach. The application of the transanal minimally invasive surgery (TAMIS) to the advancement rectal flap procedure could overcome these difficulties. In the lithotomy position, a partial fistulectomy was performed and the internal opening was closed. A full-thickness flap was mobilized initially through the classic transanal approach. Subsequently, the TAMIS port was inserted and the mobilization of the flap was carried on proximally for as long as required. The laparoscopic visualization allowed a perfect view, a proper orientation of the flap and accurate hemostasis. The TAMIS-flap procedure seems a promising technique to perform a long advancement rectal flap to treat high perianal or rectovaginal fistulae (Video, Supplemental Digital Content 1, http://links.lww.com/SLE/A208).

RESUMO

PURPOSE: This study is designed to assess the safety, efficacy, and postoperative outcomes of stapled transperineal repair in management of rectovaginal fistula (RVF). METHODS: A prospective database of patients with RVF undergoing stapled transperineal repair between May 2015 and December 2017 was established and studied retrospectively. RESULTS: Seven consecutive RVF patients underwent stapled transperineal repair. The mean operative time was 119 ± 42 minutes. The estimated blood loss during operation was 24 ± 14 mL. Concomitant levatorplasty was performed with 4 patients and sphincteroplasty with 2 patients. Over a median follow-up of 6 months (range 3-33 months), no case was encountered with recurrence. The mean postoperative Wexner score was significantly improved when compared with the preoperative scores (mean preoperative vs postoperative Wexner scores 3 [range 3-4] vs 1 [range 1-2], respectively; P = .01). CONCLUSIONS: Stapled transperineal repair of RVF appears safe and effective. The initial results are encouraging, suggesting the need for a more formal prospective assessment of this technique as part of a randomized trial for the management of low- and mid-vaginal fistulas.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND/AIM: Patients may present with gynecologic concerns after previous posterior sagittal anorectoplasty (PSARP) for repair of an anorectal malformation (ARM). Common findings include an inadequate or shortened perineal body, as well as introital stenosis, retained vaginal septum, and remnant rectovestibular fistula. An inadequate or shortened perineal body may impact fecal continence, sexual function and recommendations regarding obstetrical mode of delivery. We describe our experience with female patients referred to our center for evaluation of their previously repaired ARM, with a specific focus on perineal body anatomy and concomitant gynecologic abnormalities. We outline our collaborative evaluation process and findings as well as subsequent repair and outcomes. MATERIAL/METHODS: A single site retrospective chart review from May 2014 to May 2016 was performed. Female patients with a history of prior ARM repair who required subsequent reoperative surgical repair with perineoplasty were included. The decision for reoperation was made collaboratively after a multidisciplinary evaluation by colorectal surgery, urology, and gynecology which included examination under anesthesia (EUA) with cystoscopy, vaginoscopy, rectal examination, and electrical stimulation of anal sphincters. The type of original malformation, indication for reoperative perineoplasty, findings leading to additional procedures performed at time of perineoplasty, postoperative complications, and the length of follow up were recorded. RESULTS: During the study period 28 patients were referred for evaluation after primary ARM repair elsewhere and 15 patients (60%) met inclusion criteria. Thirteen patients (86.6%) originally had a rectovestibular fistula with prior PSARP and 2 patients (13.4%) originally had a cloacal malformation with prior posterior sagittal anorectovaginourethroplasty. The mean age at the time of the subsequent perineoplasty was 4.6years (0.5-12). Patients had an inadequate perineal body requiring reoperative perineoplasty due to: anterior mislocation of the anus (n=11, 73.3%), prior perineal wound dehiscence with perineal body breakdown (n=2, 13.4%), acquired rectovaginal fistula (n=1, 6.6%), and posterior mislocated introitus with invasion of the perineal body (n=1, 6.6%). During the preoperative evaluation, additional gynecologic abnormalities were identified that required concomitant surgical intervention including: introital stenosis (n=4, 26.6%), retained vaginal septum (n=3, 20%) and remnant recto vestibular fistula (n=2, 13.3%). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with a previously repaired ARM may present with gynecologic concerns that require subsequent surgical intervention. The most common finding was an inadequate perineal body, but other findings included introital stenosis, retained vaginal septum and remnant recto vestibular fistula. Multidisciplinary evaluation to assess and identify abnormalities and coordinate timing and surgical approach is crucial to assure optimal patient outcomes. TYPE OF STUDY: Case series with no comparison group. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

RESUMO

Objective This study was performed to identify risk factors for postoperative rectovaginal fistula (PRF) in patients with deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). Methods Data were retrospectively obtained from the medical records of 104 patients with DIE, and statistical analysis was used to detect risk factors for PRF. Results Five of 104 (4.8%) patients developed PRF from 5 to 16 days postoperatively. The operative procedures included 84 (80.8%) superficial excisions, 6 (5.8%) full-thickness disc excisions, and 14 (13.5%) bowel resections. Most lesions were located in the cul-de-sac, and the mean lesion size was 2.6 cm (range, 0.5-7.0 cm). The univariate analysis showed that lesion location, larger lesion size, and surgical technique were statistically significant risk factors for PRF. Conclusion Surgical procedures should be very carefully executed in patients with DIE lesions of ≥4 cm.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Rectovaginal fistulas are a relatively rare, but debilitating condition which pose a significant treatment challenge. Areas covered: In this manuscript we discuss the etiology, classification as well as the manifestations and evaluation of rectovaginal fistulas. We summarize the different surgical techniques and evaluate their success rates and perioperative considerations according to cited sources. Expert commentary: A deep understanding of the disease, treatment options, and familiarity with the different surgical treatment options available is mandatory for choosing the correct treatment. When the surgical treatment is tailored to the specific fistula and patient, many patients can eventually have successful resolution. This review will address the management and patient outcomes after treatment for rectovaginal fistulas.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The association of rectovestibular fistula (RVF) and vaginal agenesis (VA) presents a diagnostic and management challenge. The vaginal replacement is usually performed with rectum or sigmoid, which are the natural fecal reservoirs; thus, the fecal control could be affected. We present our experience utilizing ileum to preserve the rectum and sigmoid. METHODS: We performed a retrospective study of eight patients with RVF and VA treated from May 2011 to June 2015 at two colorectal centers, at Pittsburgh and Mexico. We recorded the age at diagnosis of VA, treatment, presence of other associated malformations and outcome. RESULTS: Eight of forty-nine girls with RVF had an associated VA (16.3%). Three patients had a timely diagnosis and five a delayed diagnosis. Six patients were submitted to a vaginal replacement with ileum and achieved fecal control. Two are waiting for surgery. CONCLUSIONS: A high index of suspicion of vaginal agenesis helps in a timely diagnosis in girls with RVF. The use of ileum allows for preservation of the fecal reservoirs, thus optimizing the chance for fecal control in patients with anorectal malformations.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND This study reports the pathogenesis of anal canal adenocarcinoma in a patient with longstanding Crohn's disease (CD). CASE REPORT A 50-year-old woman with a 33-year history of CD presented with perianal pain of several months' duration. She had been treated surgically for a rectovaginal fistula 26 years earlier and had been treated with infliximab (IFX) for the previous 4 years. A biopsy under anesthesia revealed an anal canal adenocarcinoma, which was removed by abdominoperineal resection. Pathological examination showed that a large part of the tumor consisted of mucinous adenocarcinoma at the same location as the rectovaginal fistula had been removed 26 years earlier. There was no evidence of recurrent rectovaginal fistula, but thick fibers surrounded the tumor, likely representing part of the previous rectovaginal fistula. Immunohistochemical analysis using antibodies against cytokeratins (CK20 and CK7) revealed that the adenocarcinoma arose from the rectal mucosa, not the anal glands. CONCLUSIONS Mucinous adenocarcinoma can arise in patients with CD, even in the absence of longstanding perianal disease, and may be associated with adenomatous transformation of the epithelial lining in a former fistula tract.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Rectovaginal fistula (RVF) refers to a pathological passage between the rectum and vagina, which is a public health challenge. This study was aimed to explore the clinical value of endoluminal biplane ultrasonography in the diagnosis of rectovaginal fistula (RVF). METHODS: Thirty inpatients and outpatients with suspected RVF from January 2006 to June 2013 were included in the study, among whom 28 underwent surgical repair. All 28 patients underwent preoperative endoluminal ultrasonography, and the obtained diagnostic results were compared with the corresponding surgical results. RESULTS: All of the internal openings located at the anal canal and rectum of the 28 patients and confirmed during surgery were revealed by preoperative endosonography, which showed a positive predictive value of 100%. Regarding the 30 internal openings located in the vagina during surgery, the positive predictive value of preoperative endosonography was 93%. The six cases of simple fistulas confirmed during surgery were revealed by endosonography; for the 22 cases of complex fistula confirmed during surgery, the positive predictive value of endosonography was 90%. Surgery confirmed 14 cases of anal fistula and 14 cases of RVF, whereas preoperative endoluminal ultrasonography suggested 16 cases of anal fistula and 12 cases of RVF, resulting in positive predictive values of 92.3 and 93%, respectively. CONCLUSION: The use of endoluminal biplane ultrasonography in the diagnosis of RVF can accurately determine the internal openings in the rectum or vagina and can relatively accurately identify concomitant branches and abscesses located in the rectovaginal septum. Thus, it is a good imaging tool for examining internal and external anal sphincter injuries and provides useful information for preoperative preparation and postoperative evaluation.

RESUMO

A 26 year-old female patient was admitted for the first time in the surgical, presenting an abnormal connection between the rectum and vagina given a context of an apparently clear period of time following a natural childbirth 1 year and 10 months ago. This is a rare pathological condition with a major physical, mental and sexual impact for a young female. Various surgical treatment solutions are described in the specialized literature. Yet, we have not come across any studies that analyzed the various means of surgical treatment. In what follows we will describe the technique we used in this case, with a very good immediate result and after 5 years by surgery.
