| Core Tip |
Perianal fistulae strongly impact on quality of life of affected patients. Despite various treatment options clinical care of fistula patients remains a challenge and novel minimally invasive treatment options are needed. Fistulodesis is feasible and safe for perianal fistula closure. Overall success rates is at 30% comparable to other similar techniques. A trend for better outcomes in patients with low perianal disease activity index needs to be confirmed. |
