[Closure of a prostatocutaneous urinary fistula while preserving sexual function using a perineal approach with Gracilis flap interposition].

We present the case of a 36-year-old man suffering from perianal loss of urine through a cutaneous pore while urinating. Appropriate diagnostic investigation showed a urethrocutaneous fistula of the prostatic urethra of unclear aetiology. Because of the patient's young age and sexual activity, surgical treatment was challenging. The fistula was isolated via a perineal access and ligated close to the prostate without endangering the neurovascular bundles. In order to achieve a secure closure of the fistula, a Gracilis flap was placed as an interposition between the dorsal prostate and the percutaneous fistula outlet. To date, no case has been described of a successful, function-preserving surgical treatment of a prostatocutaneous urinary fistula.
