Abstract
- The causes of urethrorectal fistula are multiple such as trauma, open prostatectomy, radiation therapy, infection and congenital anomaly and so forth. In considering the injured area, length and the condition or periurethral tissue, numerous approaches have been advocated for the treatment of the traumatic urethrorectal fistula. Herein we report the experience of successful transsacral repair of traumatic urethrorectal fistula in a 14 year-old male patient 3 months after cystostomy and colostomy installed.
