概要 BACKGROUND:It is challenging to manage colorectal or urinary tract-related fistula. We typically treat colorectal or urinary tract-related fistula with a vascularized tissue transfer. This study aimed to analyze the outcomes of our surgical treatments for colorectal or urinary tract-related fistula.METHODS:This retrospective review included all patients who underwent surgical repair of a colorectal or urinary tract-related fistula at our institution from October 2004 to September 2019. Patients whose surgical outcomes could not be evaluated were excluded. The primary outcome was the overall cure rate. We also evaluated the complication rate and compared the outcomes for rectovaginal fistula with those for urorectal fistula.RESULTS:The final analysis included 38 cases, of which 17 were rectovaginal fistula and 16 were urorectal fistula. The transperineal approach was used in 28 cases and transperineal and transabdominal combined in nine cases. A gracilis muscle flap was used in 19 cases and a gluteal fold flap in 13 cases. Although a major leak occurred in nine cases, the fistula was finally cured successfully in 31 cases. A comparison of the outcomes for rectovaginal fistula and urorectal fistula showed that complications occurred in 5/17 cases of rectovaginal fistula and 10/16 cases of urorectal fistula (p = 0.056). Fistulae were cured successfully in 13/17 cases of rectovaginal fistula and 14/16 cases of urorectal fistula (p = 0.656).CONCLUSION:Our surgical treatment for colorectal or urinary tract-related fistula succeeded in 31 of 38 cases. Thus, vascularized tissue transfer is useful for refractory colorectal or urinary tract-related fistula.
