Most RUFs are secondary to lower urinary or intestinal tract surgery. Several surgical approaches have been proposed.

In one patient with Crohn\u2019s disease the fistula recurred 11 years after the first surgery. One patient died for metastasis of prostate cancer 1 year after surgical repair of the RUF. A temporary colostomy was performed in five patients; the colostomies were subsequently closed, and the patients regained complete fecal continence with no postoperative anal strictures. The colostomy remained in place in one patient with Crohn\u2019s disease and in another with ulcerative rectocolitis.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>The posterior sagittal transrectal approach provided easy access and identification of RUFs and good surgical exposure, with no subsequent strictures or fecal incontinence.
