[Posterior trans-anal-sphincter approach in the management of urethro-prostate-rectal fistula].

Uretroprostatorectal fistulas occur rarely, often due to trauma or iatrogenic causes. We observed a case caused by a gun wound and present our surgical route for treatment. The deep situation of these fistulae explains the difficulty in surgical access. Several routes have been described. We used the posterior transanosphincter route proposed by York Mason. This technique has the advantage of direct access for the fistula. Success rate is high and morbidity is limited. No fecal incontinence has been reported in the literature.
