| Core Tip |
This study introduces an innovative modification of the fistulotomy technique for perianal fistulas that focuses on distalizing the internal opening away from the high-pressure zone. By excising the fistula tract up to the external sphincter, widening the internal orifice, curetting the inter sphincteric septic focus, performing a partial internal sphincterotomy, and employing absorbable sutures with loose seton placement, this method achieved complete healing in 83.3% of the 72 patients treated with it, while maintaining low recurrence (4.2%) and minimal incontinence (12.5%) rates. |
