Core Tip	The PERFACT procedure is a simple, economical and novel method to cure complex fistula-in-ano. It is associated with little pain, low morbidity and minimal risk of incontinence as both the anal sphincters are completely preserved. It is quite effective in complex fistula cases where other methods do not have a high success rate, like in horseshoe fistula, fistula with multiple tracts, recurrent fistula and fistula with supralevator extension. The PERFACT procedure is also quite successful in cases where the internal opening cannot be localized and in patients presenting with perianal/ischiorectal abscess where it can be done as a definitive procedure at the initial presentation.
