Presidential address. Lateral subcutaneous internal anal sphincterotomy for anal fissure.
AN ANAL FISSURE is ai1 ulcer of t h e a n a l canal which may extend from the anal verge to the dentate line. It is usually exquisitely painful, so the best treatment is that which is the most expedient but also provides negli#ble recurrence and minimal disability of anal function.

متن کاملStudy of operated patients of lateral internal anal sphincterotomy for chronic anal fissure.
INTRODUCTION Anal fissure causes significant morbidity in the population. It is proposed that elevated sphincter pressures may cause ischaemia of the anal lining and this may be responsible for the pain of anal fissures and their failure to heal. When pharmacologic therapy fails or fissures recur frequently, lateral internal sphincterotomy is the surgical treatment of choice. MATERIAL AND MET...
متن کاملLateral subcutaneous internal sphincterotomy in the treatment of chronic anal fissure: our experience.
BACKGROUND Chronic anal fissure is the most common cause of anal pain associated with internal anal sphincter hypertonia. Reduction of hypertonia favours fissure healing. Temporary reduction in sphincter tone can be achieved by conservative treatment. Surgical sphincterotomy achieves permanent reduction of sphincter hypertonia and is very successful at healing anal fissures, but requires an ope...
متن کاملAnal canal pressure in anal fissure before and after internal sphincterotomy.
PURPOSE To assess whether the anal canal pressure is increased in patients with a chronic anal fissure and to examine the effects of internal anal sphincterotomy (IASy) on this pressure. MATERIALS AND METHOD Anorectal manometry was performed in 28 patients in whom an anal fissure had been diagnosed by means of physical examination and anuscopy. After IASy the manometric measurement was repeat...
متن کاملComplications and results of lateral internal sphincterotomy for chronic anal fissure
Background Treatment of chronic anal fissure has been directed at relaxing increased sphincter tone. Lateral internal sphincterotomy (LIS), since its introduction in 1951 by Eisenhammer, has been considered the gold standard approach with healing rate of approaching 95%. However, concerns have been raised about postoperative impairment of faecal incontinence after LIS. Actually, the incidence o...
