New fistula treatments

Since the day known as perianal fistula disease, surgeons have been trying to treat the disease without damaging the anal sphincters that control the stool. However, the nature of the disease and its spread to the anatomical areas around the anus, which is not easy to identify, have caused recurrence of the disease and in most cases led surgeons to treat fistula using more sphincter discontinuation methods. Considering the value of anal sphincter muscle in the control of excretion, it seems that, if possible, prior to the decision to have a fistulectomy, all the procedures in which the sphincter is preserved should be used.

The oldest of these is fibrin glue, which is less popular with surgeons due to its use problems and high recurrence rate. Another product is a plug that is made from the pig intestinal mucosa and has been used in numerous patients in Iran and has had a success rate of about 60-70%.
