Abstract
The incidence of RVF was higher in the patients who were anastomosed by DST or had concomitant resection of the vaginal wall. Although some RVFs heal with only fecal diversion, for patients in whom RVF is caused by involvement of the vaginal wall in the circular staple or intersphincteric resection, good results are obtained with the gluteal-fold flap repair technique.
