1 Approach to the Repair of Chronic Perineal Lacerations and Rectovaginal Fistula (RVF) Blair B. Washington MD, MHA Urogynecology & Reconstructive Pelvic Surgery Virginia Mason Medical Center

2 Disclosures I have no financial disclosures or conflicts of interest

3 Objective Review anatomic considerations for characterizing rectovaginal and perineal defects Describe surgical repair of chronic perineal lacerations Describe surgical repair of rectovaginal fistula 3

4 Classification of Defects Distal Defects Direct perineal laceration in non-obstructed labor resulting in inadequately repaired or unrecognized lacerations Distal RVFs Anovaginal fistula (below the dentate line) Chronic Third and Fourth-degree Lacerations Proximal RVFs Direct tissue compression from obstructed labor

5 Define the Anatomic Defect Bowel wall 2. Internal Anal Sphincter 3. External Anal Sphincter 4. Perineal Body 5. Bulbospongiosus 6. Vaginal wall & Perineal Skin 1. Delancy, JO et al. Clinical Obstetrics & Gynecology. 53(1): , 2010.

6 Evaluate function of the external anal sphincter Define the Anatomic Defect Physical exam Ultrasound Define the Anatomic Defect 6

7 Preoperative Considerations Route, Positioning & Exposure Route (vaginal versus abdominal) Lithotomy versus prone Self-retaining vaginal retractor 7

8 Surgical Approach to Chronic Perineal Lacerations Dissection Inverted U incision dividing the vaginal wall from the rectum Dissect into the rectovaginal space Dissect laterally until separated ends of perineal structures identified Identify and grasp ends of disrupted anal sphincter Excise scar Reconstruction Repair rectal wall (3-0 vicryl) Repair internal anal sphincter (3-0 PDS) Repair external anal sphincter (2-0 PDS) Reconstruct perineal body Close vaginal and perineal skin

9 Surgical Approach to Chronic Perineal Lacerations Dissection Inverted U incision dividing the vaginal wall from the rectum Dissect into the rectovaginal space Dissect laterally until separated ends of perineal structures identified Identify and grasp ends of disrupted anal sphincter

10 Surgical Approach to Chronic Perineal Lacerations Reconstruction Repair rectal wall (3-0 vicryl) Repair internal anal sphincter (3-0 PDS)

11 Surgical Approach to Chronic Perineal Lacerations Reconstruction Repair external anal sphincter (2-0 PDS)

12 Surgical Approach to Chronic Perineal Lacerations Reconstruction Reconstruct perineal body Close vaginal and perineal skin

13 Surgical Approach to RVF Repair Dissection Widely mobilize around the fistula tract Excise the fistula tract Reconstruction Repair rectal wall (3-0 vicryl) Multilayer closure Close vaginal skin and reconstruct the perineum
