An anal fistula is a medical condition characterized by the formation of an infected passageway between the skin and the muscular opening located at the end of the digestive tract, known as the anus.
Typically, anal fistulas arise from an infection originating in the anal gland. This infection leads to the development of an abscess, which may either discharge spontaneously or be surgically drained through the skin adjacent to the anus. Subsequently, the fistula progresses beneath the skin and establishes a connection with the infected gland.
The primary cause of almost all anal fistulas is an anorectal abscess. An anorectal abscess occurs due to an infection in one of the anal glands, which rapidly progresses into the formation of a pus-filled collection known as an abscess. When the abscess fails to heal completely, with or without treatment, it can lead to the development of an anal fistula.
Other factors that can contribute to the occurrence of anal fistulas include :
FiLaC (Fistula-tract Laser Closure) :
Distal Laser Proximal Ligation (DLPL) :
VAAFT (Video Assisted Anal Fistula Treatment) :
LIFT (Ligation of Intersphincteric Fistula Tract) :
Fistula Plug
Fistulectomy
