Rectovaginal Fistula – Expert Care for Safe Healing
Experiencing unusual discharge, pain, or recurrent infections in the vaginal area?
You might be dealing with a rectovaginal fistula (RVF), an abnormal connection between the rectum and vagina.
Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to prevent recurrent infections, discomfort, and long-term complications.
What Exactly Is a Rectovaginal Fistula?
A rectovaginal fistula is a small tunnel that forms between the rectum and vagina, allowing stool or gas to pass abnormally into the vagina.
Common causes include:
- Childbirth trauma or difficult deliveries
- Surgical complications
- Infections or abscesses
- Inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn’s
Without treatment, RVFs can lead to pain, embarrassment, and repeated infections.
Common Symptoms to Watch Out For
If you notice any of these signs, consult a specialist:
• Passage of stool or gas from the vagina
• Foul-smelling discharge or vaginal irritation
• Recurrent urinary or vaginal infections
• Pain during intercourse
• Discomfort or swelling in the vaginal or anal area
Early diagnosis improves outcomes and simplifies treatment.
Treatment Options for Rectovaginal Fistula
Modern treatments are minimally invasive and effective. Depending on the complexity, options include:
- Laser or minimally invasive fistula surgery: Precise closure of the fistula with minimal pain and faster recovery
- Conventional surgical repair: For complex or recurrent fistulas
- Seton placement: Helps drain infection and prepares the area for definitive surgery
- Flap or tissue reconstruction: For large or complicated fistulas
Laser surgery is often preferred for its precision, faster healing, and lower recurrence rate.
Why Choose Expert Care?
• Accurate diagnosis of fistula complexity
• Minimally invasive, pain-reducing procedures
• Faster recovery and lower risk of recurrence
• Personalized care to preserve continence and quality of life
A specialized approach ensures safe and effective treatment with lasting results.
