Abstract
Rectourethral fistula is a potentially devastating disease for the patient and difficult management problem for the physician. We report a case of radiation and salvage cryoablation-induced rectourethral fistula for treatment of prostate cancer successfully repaired with a combined endorectal advancement flap with Alloderm graft. The surgical technique is described in detail. The patient is now one year post-repair with no evidence of recurrence.Entities:
