Core Tip |
Surgical sphincterotomy is still the approach of choice for the treatment of chronic anal fissure with internal anal sphincter hypertonia, even if it is burdened by a high risk of postoperative faecal incontinence. For this reason, sphincter-saving surgical procedures have recently been reconsidered to overcome this risk. In our work, we consider fissurectomy with anoplasty, and we wonder if the association with pharmacological sphincterotomy with botulinum toxin A injection may improve the outcomes in patients affected by chronic anal fissure with hypertonic internal anal sphincter. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the results of the associated procedures in terms of reduction of faecal incontinence risk and recurrence rate and improvement of overall results in comparison with conventional sphincterotomy. |
