At Healing Hands Clinic, an anal fistula is diagnosed through a clinical examination and proctoscopy. Complex cases may require an MRI Fistulogram.
Fistula is a challenging condition to heal. The ultimate goal of any fistula treatment should be to
The majority of treatments, such as VAAFT, LIFT, and FiLaC, work to close the fistula while leaving the sphincter intact. However, t hey all have distinct recurrence rates. Given the severity of a fistula, even a slight possibility of recurrence can jeopardise the patient's life.
Healing Hands Clinic has treated a huge number of Fistula cases as a specialised Proctology super specialty (a department of surgery that deals with the rectum and gluteal region). Based on our years of treating fistula patients, we've attempted to comprehend the nature of the sickness and the cause of recurrences. After completing considerable research and utilising all of our knowledge and experience, we developed the DLPL (Distal Laser Proximal Ligation) approach.
During this surgery, an abscess pit and the inner opening are initially excised. This is taken into account during distal tract closure. The Leonardo Laser is then utilised to shut the fistula tract's proximal end. In a circumstantial pattern, the laser's radially emitting fibre sends energy to the fistula tract. This ensures that the tract is closed entirely.
