RESUMO
Objetivo: Presentar un tratamiento alternativo para una fistula recto vaginal grande producida por la radiación en una mujer joven tratada por cáncer de cuello uterino, basado en las sigmoideoplastias vaginales en pacientes con agenesia de vagina. Paciente y método: Paciente de sexo Femenino de 36 años que el año 2010 concurre al consultorio de proctología por presentar proctorragia asociada a la defecación de dos semanas de evolución. Antecedentes de conización en el año 2008 por carcinoma epidermoide de cuello uterino y en 2009 irradiada con braquiterapia y radioterapia por presentar recidiva en vagina de cáncer de cuello uterino. Se decide la internación y al día siguiente es llevada a quirófano donde se observa a nivel de recto inferior y medio, fístula con tercio medio e inferior de vagina de unos 4 a 5 cm de diámetro. Dada las características de la misma, el grado de incontinencia de la paciente, su retracción inmediata de sus actividades laborales y sociales, se le plantea la posibilidad de desfuncionalizarla resecado el recto medio e inferior, completar la cirugía oncológica de su cáncer y en un segundo acto reconstruir tanto el tránsito intestinal como su vagina con un segmento vascularizado de colon. Discusión: Existen varias formas de clasificar una fistula rectovaginal, en base a su ubicación, según su diámetro, por último se pueden clasificar según su complejidad en simples y complejas. Dentro de los tratamientos hallamos los perineales, rectales o vaginales, indicados en las fistulas bajas o medias y los abdominales en las fistulas altas. Existen algunas que no responde a los tratamientos habituales o que desde un principio no se pueden tratar por las técnicas habituales, llevando en contadas ocasiones a tratamientos más agresivos como la desfuncionalización, colgajos miocutáneos o la técnica de Simonsen.
Purpose: to present an alternative treatment for rectovaginal fistula secondary to radiation in a young female patient treated for cervical cancer, based on a vaginal sigmoideoplasty. Patient and Method: 36 years old female patient with a 2-week history of rectal bleeding. Personal history of conization in 2008 for cervical squamous carcinoma and postoperative treatment in 2009 with brachytherapy and radiaton therapy for local cancer recurrence. On surgical perineal exploration a recto-vaginal defect of 4-5 cm was identified in the middle-lower vagina. Proctectomy was performed based in surgical principles. During reconstructive surgery the vagina was replaced with a colonic segment. Results: there are several ways to classify a rectovaginal fistula, based on location, diameter and according to their complexity into simple and complex. Rectal, perineal and vaginal approaches have been described. In some cases, more aggressive techniques could be performed such as myocutaneous flaps and Simonsen technique.

BACKGROUND: The purpose of our study was to assess the biocompatibility of the porcine small bowel submucosa and its ability to increase the rectal diameter compared with a formal transverse coloplasty. METHODS: We assigned 36 New Zealand male rabbits to four experimental groups: groups C1 and C2 were treated with transverse coloplasty and groups S1 and S2 were treated with a patch of a porcine small intestine submucosa. We killed the animals in the C1 and S1 groups on the 7th postoperative day, and the animals in the C2 and S2 groups on the 30th postoperative day. We evaluated outcomes on the basis of animal survival, clinical course, anastomosis bursting pressures, morphometric examination, and histologic and immunohistochemical assessment. RESULTS: Morphometric examination showed a significant increase in colonic diameter in animals in the S2 group. We found no statistical difference regarding anastomosis bursting pressure between the C1 and S1 groups, and the C2 and S2 groups. On the 30th postoperative day, histologic examination showed total epithelium coverage of the grafts, and the immunohistochemical study showed an organized smooth muscular layer covering the graft. The higher concentration of collagen ticker fiber, type I, was seen in the S2 and C2 groups, but there was no statistical difference between them. CONCLUSIONS: The implanted graft proved superior to transverse coloplasty regarding the increase in distal colon diameter. Remarkable regeneration, marked fibroplasia, and epithelium coverage occurred throughout the graft on the 30th postoperative day.

O autor apresenta, detalhadamente, a técnica de ressecção anterior ultrabaixa e interesfinctérica com anastomose coloanal por videolaparoscopia para tratamento do câncer do reto distal. São descritos os principais passos da operação: 1 - Posição do Paciente; 2 - Posicionamento do Equipamento e Equipe; 3 - Posicionamento dos Trocartes e Exploração da Cavidade Abdominal; 4 - Exposição do Campo Operatório; 5 - Ligadura dos Vasos Mesentéricos Inferiores pelo acesso medial; 6 - Mobilização do Ângulo Esplênico e do Colon Sigmóide; 7 - Excisão total do mesorreto, preservação dos nervos pélvicos e mobilização do reto pela técnica de Rullier; 8- Secção do reto distal e anastomose coloanal;9-Ressecção interesfinctérica (RI) e anastomose coloanal com coloplastia transversa, bolsa colónica em J ou anastomose latero-terminal. A utilização desta técnica, apesar de ser um procedimento complexo, mostrou-se viável e segura, pois apresentou baixo índice de complicação pós-operatória e mortalidade.
The author present the laparoscopic coloanal anastomosis and intersphincteric resection technique to treat patients with very low rectal cancer. The operative steps are: 1 - Patient positioning; 2 - Instruments and equip positioning; 3 - Insertion of the ports; 4 - Preparation of the operative field; 5 - Difining and dividing the inferior mesenteric artery and vein by the medial approach; 6 - Mobilization of splenic flexure and sigmoid colon; 7 - rectal mobilization and total mesorectum excision by Rullier technique; 8 - Rectal division and coloanal anastomosis; 9 - intersphincteric resection and coloanal anastomosis by coloplasty, J pouch or latero-to-end techniques. The technique employed is safe and have presented low rate of complication and no mortality.
