Anal Sphincter Reconstruction After High Recurrent Anorectal Fistula Excision

Anorectal Fistula

A retrospective analysis of patients treated for recurrent posterior anorectal fistula, who previously had undergone radical excision of fistula-in-ano, was performed. Three types of surgical reconstruction were compared: fistulectomy with primary sphincteroplasty, muco-muscular advancement flap and full-thickness low rectum posterior semicircular mobilization.

Anorectal Fistulas

This will be a prospective, multi-center, post-market, single arm observational study to collect clinical outcome data on the use of Permacol™ Collagen Paste in the treatment of anorectal fistulas. The subjects will have baseline and day of surgery visits performed, and then subjects will return to the investigator for evaluation of defect and safety related morbidities at follow up visits scheduled at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months post-surgery.

The Impact of 3D Anal Fistula Models on Patient Understanding and Decision Making

Fistula in AnoAno Fistula

An anal fistula is an abnormal communication between the luminal surface of the anorectal canal and the perianal skin. Fistulas can vary in their complexity and can be challenging to treat, due to the anatomical relation to the anal sphincter complex that controls continence. In addition, fistulas can display complex features such as branches, cavities and horseshoes; where the tract travels radially around the anal canal. All these features have a role in determining the most appropriate surgical treatment option, and are key to understanding the surgical decision-making process. This study will determine patient understanding of fistula anatomy, their perception of their own understanding, their rating of how good their clinician's explanation is and how this impacts the decision-making process using standard explanation with 2D images, versus a 3D printed model of a fistula.

Management of Fistula in Ano by Kshar Sutra, Para Surgical Procedure.

Fistula in Ano

Background: Fistula in ano is one of the most common diseases of the ano rectal region. Treatment of Fistula in ano has puzzled the medical fraternity due to its complex nature. Commonly prevalent surgical treatment for anal Fistula, that is "Fistulectomy" does not provide successful cure for the disease, post operative complications and recurrences being common. Acharya Sushruta an ancient Indian Surgeon has described in his text ' Sushruta Samhita' about an ancient Ayurvedic technique of medicated thread called Ksharsutra treatment for Bhagandara ( Fistula in ano).

Multicenter Prospective Evaluation of Radiofrequency for Anal Fistulas

Anal Fistula

Anal fistula treatment is associated with increasing risk of anal incontinence until 40% of cases. New and alternative treatments (glue, advancement flap, plug…) decrease this risk, but with fistula efficacy treatment in 40 to 60% of cases. Radiofrequency might destroy fistula tract without lesion of anal sphincter. Objective : Fistula healing rate and anal continence, 6 and 12 months after radiofrequency procedure. Methods : Clinical and MRI evaluation before, 6 and 12 months after treatment. Patients : 50 patients with low, high, complex and Crohn disease fistula. An intermediate analysis is expected after the first 20 patients, to verify morbidity. Evaluations : Fistula clinical healing 6 and 12 months after procedure Fistula MRI healing 12 months after procedure Anal continence before and after procedure Feasibility og radiofrequency procedure Morbidity Success and failure prognostics factors of this procedure

TIPS Microspheres for Perianal Fistula

Perianal Fistula

Phase of Investigation: First-in-human feasibility study Objectives: Primary objective: Demonstration that TIPS microspheres do not compromise the clinical condition or safety of the patient. Secondary objective: To demonstrate that TIPS microspheres facilitate natural healing in the context of perianal fistula. Type of Investigation: First-in-human single site, open label, feasibility study to assess the safety of TIPS microspheres in perianal fistulas and indicative functionality. Investigation design and methods: First-in-human single delivery of a bioabsorbable device to treat perianal fistula. A standard of care internal flap procedure performed to close the internal fistula opening and up to 300 mg of TIPS microspheres will be inserted into each perianal fistula. Participants will be assessed for healing, inflammation, abscess, sepsis, pain and continence by clinical assessments, blood tests, MRI and questionnaires.

High Type Fistula in Ano, Use Staged Seton, Loose Thick Sutures

Fistula in Ano

Fistula in ano is a chronic problem for the patients. It causes distressing because of foul odor and soiling with recurrent infection and discharge. Recurrence and anal sphincter injury were the most critical complications following surgery. Loose, thick Seton placement was the most promising surgical operation. To reduce the time of Seton placement, therefore, decreasing the suffering of patients from soiling and multiple dressing.

Photodynamic Therapy in Anal Fistula

Rectal Fistula

Objective: Validate and analyze the results of intralesional photodynamic therapy in the treatment of complex anal fistula. Methods: Prospective observational study including patients treated for complex anal fistula who underwent intralesional photodynamic therapy (i-PDT). Patients were included with a minimum follow up of 1-year, in order to evaluate recurrence, continence and postoperative morbidity. Intralesional 5-aminolevulinic acid gel 2% was directly injected into the fistula. The internal and external orifices were closed. After an incubation period of 2 h, the fistula was irradiated using an optical fibre connected to a red laser (MULTIDIODE 630 PDT, INTERmedic, Spain) operating at 1 W/ cm for 3 min (180 Joules).
