Filter by:In patients with vesicovaginal fistula, transvesical and extravesical repair will be compared in terms of operative time, complications and recurrence rates.
Introduction: A rectovaginal fistula (RVF) is an epithelium-lined abnormal tract between the rectum and the vagina and is often a challenging problem for both the patients and to the surgeons. In literature, there is still debate regarding the best treatment options for rectovaginal fistulas. Aim: To assess the results of the treatment of rectovaginal fistulas with incontinence and impaired anal tonus using fistulectomy, sphincteroplasty with or without bulbocavernosus muscle (Martius) flap. Materials and Methods: A total of 22 consecutive patients with simple RVFs were included and assigned to transperineal repair. The patients were divided into two groups , group1: with Martius flap; group2: without Martius flap .Postoperatively, patients were followed up for one year at the outpatient clinic or through telephone interviews with specific questionnaires to collect information on the status of fecal control, flatus, or fecal leakage from the vagina.
Background:Fistula-in-ano is described as Bhagandara in the classics of Ayurveda, is an ancient surgical problem. It was commonly described even in the Vedic period. The description of Bhagandara, with the full text of its managements, can be gathered from the Sushruta Samhita, which is supposed to have been written in the second century B.C. Fistula-in-ano is a tubular ulcer formed around the peri-anal region. It may also be found anywhere in the perineal region. Its ramifications can extend to the lower back, subscrotal region, vagina etc. Hypothesis:In Sushruta Samhita(2nd BC) Acharya Sushruta has advocated Kshar Sutra treatment due to probability of recurrence after surgery. The present treatment modality Kshar Sutra has been found effective and as adjuvant therapy by avoiding recurrence.
This facility-based, multi-center randomized controlled trial (RCT) will test the non-inferiority of short-term (7 day) urethral catheterization compared to longer-term (14 day) urethral catheterization in terms of predicting fistula repair breakdown three months following urinary fistula repair surgery. The study will be conducted among 507 women with simple fistula presenting at 8 study sites in Sub-Saharan Africa for fistula repair surgery.
The purpose of this study is to determine safety and efficacy of allogenic eASCs (expanded adult stem cells) for the treatment of recto-vaginal fistula in patients with Crohn´s disease.
This clinical trial will study the safety and effectiveness of the Biodesign Vesico-vaginal fistula plug in the treatment of vesico-vaginal fistulas resulting from childbirth trauma.
