An anal fistula can be classified based on the region where it occurs; the part surrounding the anus and its relationship with the sphincter muscles.
Complex anal fistulas have more than one pathway, making the network more complicated than simple fistulas which only have one pathway.
When the abnormal connections between organs, usually the bladder and the vagina, happen again after being treated before, this is called a recurrent fistula.
Imagine that there is a small opening, an unplanned link between your urinary tract and a nearby structure. That is a urinary tract fistula, which is a small but important opening that lets fluids go where they shouldn’t.
Urethrovaginal fistulas are abnormal connections between the urethra and vagina. They usually happen because of an infection, a difficult birth, or problems during surgery.
VVF stands for vesicovaginal fistulas, which are abnormal openings between the bladder and the vagina. As a result of this condition, people may leak urine through their vagina, which can be uncomfortable and upsetting.
