“…6 Likewise, a complicated case with rectovaginal fistula was reported. 7 In the clinical case presented, it is presumed that the necrosis was secondary to vascular injury, ischemia, and subsequent necrosis, or secondary to denervation of the labia minora. Up to 11 different labiaplasty techniques have been described, which can be grouped into three groups: edge resection, wedge resection and central resection (Figure 5).…”

“…Наиболее частой причиной РВC является акушерская травма [4]. Ректовагинальные свищи осложняют 0,1% вагинальных родов [6]. Длительные роды с некрозом прямой кишки или акушерской травмой с разрывом промежности третьей или четвертой степени или эпизиотомией могут привести к возникновению ректовагинального свища [7].…”

“…Инфекционные процессы в ректовагинальной перегородке также могут привести к образованию ректовагинального свища. Криптогландулярные аноректальные абсцессы и абсцессы бартолиновых желез могут спонтанно дренироваться, вызывая формирование низкого ректовагинального свища [6]. Примерно у 2% женщин в течение жизни развивается киста или абсцесс бартолиновой железы, вторичные по отношению к бактериальным инфекциям [8,9].…”
