The main cause of rectovaginal fistulas is the lack of an individual approach to determining the method of surgical treatment of rectovaginal fistulas, which prompts the search for newer surgical techniques and the development of treatment algorithms. Of all genital fistulas, intestinal-genital fistulas are the most common (49.3% of observations). The proportion of rectovaginal fistulas is 59.1%. Low- and medium-level fistulas are the most common. Rectovaginal fistulas are a complicated social problem, cause disadaptation, lead to severe moral and physical suffering of the patient, put her in a difficult relationship with her family and others.
