How To Cite This Article: Kalmegh.M., Jadhav.S., Joshi.K., A Case Study of Rectovaginal Fistula with its Ayurvedic Management.
Rectovaginal fistulas are rare and having a multitude of causes and it is well known that obstetric and gynecological problems form a large part of these causes such as our case. Numerous small, low rectovaginal fistulas, or those affecting the sphincters, are signs of third-degree perineal lacerations that have not fully healed. A more succinct treatment strategy is offered by an individual, systematic approach to these fistulas depending on their size, location, and cause. In our situation, more precise therapy involves probing and threading with the use of kshirsutra before removing the fistulous track. The recurrence rate of fistula significantly lowers with these treatments.
Keywords – Rectovaginal fistula, probing and threading, kshrirsutra application.
