Colovaginal fistula is a rare condition associated with significant morbidity. The literature characterizing colovaginal fistula repair is sparse. We present our institution's experience treating colovaginal fistulas.
A retrospective review of all patients surgically treated for colovaginal fistula between 2005 and 2015 was performed. Patient demographics, intra-operative details, and post-operative outcomes were reviewed.
We identified 27 patients with a mean age of 71 (±13) and BMI of 30 (±9). The most common etiology for fistula was diverticulitis (n = 24, 89%). A laparoscopic approach was initiated in 19 patients (70%) and an open approach for 8 (30%) with 8 patients converted from laparoscopy to open (42%). At a mean follow-up of 18 months (±21), there were no recurrences.
We present one of the largest series of the surgical management of colovaginal fistulas. Although our conversion rate was high, we recommend a laparoscopic approach be utilized when feasible.
结肠阴道瘘是一种罕见疾病,伴有严重的发病率。关于结肠阴道瘘修复的文献较少。我们介绍了我们机构治疗结肠阴道瘘的经验。
对2005年至2015年间接受结肠阴道瘘手术治疗的所有患者进行回顾性研究。回顾了患者的人口统计学资料、术中细节和术后结果。
我们确定了27例患者,平均年龄71岁(±13岁),体重指数30(±9)。瘘管最常见的病因是憩室炎(n = 24,89%)。19例患者(70%)采用腹腔镜手术,8例患者(30%)采用开放手术,其中8例患者由腹腔镜手术转为开放手术(42%)。平均随访18个月(±21个月),无复发。
我们展示了最大系列的结肠阴道瘘手术治疗之一。尽管我们的中转率较高,但我们建议在可行时采用腹腔镜手术。
