Fistula Surgery

An anal fistula surgery procedure with the help of the anal fistula in Jaipur involves creating an abnormal passageway between the anal canal and surrounding skin of the anus, caused by infection of anal glands. The goal of an anal fistula procedure is to close this opening by extracting, closing off, or sealing off all possible fistula pathways and promoting healing.

Following are the steps involved in surgically treating an anal fistula:

• Before beginning surgery, the surgeon will conduct an assessment using imaging techniques and a fistulogram to identify the path of the fistula and pinpoint any internal and external holes that exist in its path.
• In an incision-and-drainage surgery, a surgeon makes a small incision into a fistula to drain its contents and eliminate infected tissues.
• Fistulotomy or Seton placement are two surgical treatments used to address fistulas: they involve cutting open the fistula so it can heal on its own from within, while Seton placement involves inserting thin materials (such as rubber bands or thread) to encourage drainage and healing from within. Both procedures aim at alleviating pain associated with fistulas while hastening recovery.
• In certain circumstances, a fistula's internal opening can be closed to stop its recurrence.
• The fistula tract access incision will be stitched and dressed.

Open or minimally invasive techniques may be employed to treat fistulas, including seton insertion. A fistula surgeon in Jaipur can judge the factors that will dictate which procedure to use; such as the severity of the fistula and any possible infections.
