Has any ladies had a recto vaginal fistula? If so had seton surgery done or any other type of surgery done for it? Love some info on this please

Many here have, myself included. If you do a search for R/V fistula, plenty of posts and info will come up.

I've had 2 repairs done. The first one was awful as they did a martius flap graft but the second was a piece of cake and thanks goodness I've never had a reoccurance and could proceed with my takedown. But my surgeon keeps a close eye on it every return visit.
I've had one for over 4 years, with a seton in for 3 years now. As Gin noted, a search will turn up quite a bit of info - I myself probably posted more over the years than necessary! 
Madi78, what was the second procedure that worked for you, and where did you have it done, if I may ask?
I also have an RV fistula, for about 8 years now. My pouch is 19 years old. I think I am one of the very few that has no seton, and has never attempted a repair. Since my pouch is otherwise (usually) extremely well behaved, I put up with the inconvenience (and what-not) regarding the fistula.

The second one was a traditional repair near the first one and I had them both done at Mayo.
