Active clinical trials for "Rectal Fistula"

The purpose of this study is to compare aspiration and oral antibiotics with surgical incision in the treatment of perianal abscesses in terms of recurrence and subsequent fistula formation. Included patients will be randomised to either aspiration or incision.

Anal fistula is the most common Peri anal disease. It's a disease with an incidence of 9 in 100,000. Anal fistula is classified on the basis of its location into high and low anal fistula, above or below dentate line respectively. Multiple series have shown that the formation of a fistula tract following anorectal abscess occurs in 7-40% of cases. There are typically 8-10 anal crypt glands at the level of the dentate line in the anal canal arranged circumstantially. These glands afford a path for infecting organisms to reach the intramuscular spaces. The cryptoglandular hypothesis states that an infection begins in the anal canal glands and progresses into the muscular wall of the anal sphincters to cause an anorectal abscess. According to internal opening many author proposed certain classification but the standardized in all of them is Park's classification, so this study categorized the patient through this classification. There are four types of fistula-in-ano in Park's Classification intersphincteric (between internal and external sphincters is 70%), transsphincteric (across external sphincters is 25%), suprasphincteric (over sphincters), and extrasphincteric(above and through levator ani).High anal fistula is considered to be difficult to treat because of its location.This study diagnosed the internal opening of high perianal with the help of endoluminal ultrasound and MRI. Classic method of its treatment are fistulotomy, fistulectomy and Setone placement but these are associated with lots of complication like fecal incontinence,recurrence,pain.Therefore many method have been recently devised including Ligation of intersphincteric fistula tract (Lift), glue repair and flap advancement.Another recently introduced method for its treatment is Video-assisted anal fistula treatment (VAAFT) proposed by P. Meinero which has been associated with less complications.

Anal abscess-fistula disease is of common occurrence and has a significant impact on the quality of life of affected individuals. The course of abscess-fistula disease as well as its treatment modalities may affect anal continence. The present cohort study investigates the results of anal fistula plug surgery. In particular, this study focus on the impact of anal fistula plug surgery on fistula healing, quality of life, and anal continence. Fifty patients will be included and followed up at 6 weeks and 6 months after surgery in the clinic of participating surgeons.

78 patients with transsphincteric fistula allocated into two groups group A underwent LIFT group B u nderwent fistulectomy , comparison between the outcome og both procedures

This randomized trial aimed to compare conventional draining seton with or without rerouting of the fistula track in treatment of complex anal fistula

This study comprises a prospective study of 40 patients with transphincteric anal fistula. The patients were classified into two groups: Group I: Fistulectomy, closure of internal sphincter and rectal advancement flap includes mucosa, submucosa, and circular muscle layer sutured 1cm below the level of internal opening. Group II: The same as group one but the flap includes only mucosa and submucosa.

Patients with high trans-sphincteric anal fistula will be randomized to one of two equal group: group 1 will have drainage seton with mucosal advancement flap and group 2 will undergo external anal sphincter sparing seton

comparison between fistulectomy wound closure and fistulotomw wound marsupialization in treatment of simple anal fistula

comparison between to groups of patients with simple anal fistula one group underwent sistulotomy the other underwent fistulotomy and marsupialization of the wound edges , the investigator tested the incidence of postoperative complications , time of wound healing , operative time

The purpose of this study is to determine if the collagen plug method heals perirectal fistulae as well as the conventional seton method.
