What are the different types of surgeries performed for cure the fistula in ano?

Fistulotomy

The most common type of surgery for anal fistulas is a fistulotomy. This involves cutting along the whole length of the fistula to open it up & remove fistulous tract so that it heals as a flat scar.

A fistulotomy is the most effective treatment for many anal fistulas, although it’s usually only suitable for fistulas that do not pass through much of the sphincter muscles, as the risk of incontinence is lowest in these cases.

If the surgeon has to cut a small portion of anal sphincter muscle during the procedure, they’ll make every attempt to reduce the risk of incontinence.

In cases where the risk of incontinence is considered too high, another procedure may be recommended instead.

Seton techniques

If your fistula passes through a significant portion of anal sphincter muscle, the surgeon may initially recommend inserting a seton.

Advancement flap procedure

An advancement flap procedure may be considered if your fistula passes through the anal sphincter muscles and having a fistulotomy carries a high risk of causing incontinence.

LIFT procedure

The ligation of the intersphincteric fistula tract (LIFT) procedure is a treatment for fistulas that pass through the anal sphincter muscles, where a fistulotomy would be too risky.

During the treatment, a cut is made in the skin above the fistula and the sphincter muscles are moved apart. The fistula is then sealed at both ends and cut open so it lies flat.

Endoscopic ablation

In this procedure, an endoscope is put in the fistula.

An electrode is then passed through the endoscope and used to get rid off the fistula.

Endoscopic ablation works well and there are no serious concerns about its safety.

Laser surgery

Radially emitting laser fibre treatment involves using a small laser beam to seal the fistula.

Fibrin glue

Treatment with fibrin glue is currently the only non-surgical option for anal fistulas.

It involves the surgeon injecting a glue into the fistula while you’re under a general anaesthetic. The glue helps seal the fistula and encourages it to heal.

It’s generally less effective than fistulotomy for simple fistulas and the results may not be long-lasting, but it may be a useful option for fistulas that pass through the anal sphincter muscles because they do not need to be cut.

Bio prosthetic plug

Another option is the insertion of a bio prosthetic plug.

This is a cone-shaped plug made from animal tissue that’s used to block the internal opening of the fistula.

This procedure works well for blocking an anal fistula and there are no serious concerns about its safety.
