Abstract:
Rectoprostatic fistulas following surgery pose difficult problems for surgical reconstruction. A variety of surgical techniques has been proposed including a perineal trans-sphincteric approach and a York-Mason procedure. We repaired three patients by this approach; we found the intervention simple, safe and effective; preliminary colostomy is not necessary.
