Overview
The authors present an unusual and, according to the available literature data, so far unused method – management of the rectovaginal fistule, using a T.E.M. technique (transanal endoscopic microsurgery). In their case-review of a female patient, they present advantages of this technique in a case of a rare disorder – a benign rectovaginal fistule. All of the following – employement of a harmonic scalpel in the T.E.M. method, as well as of a tissue adhesive Tissucol and of a surgical rectoscope in the vaginal phase of the procedure, deserve attention of surgeons and gynaecologists.
Key words:
rectovaginal fistule – T.E.M. – non-traditional approach
