Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1983
The functional outcome of fistula surgery can be quantitated by anal manometry. A closed, water-filled microballoon (0.5 X 1.0 cm) system was used to measure resting anal pressure and maximal squeeze pressure in 47 patients with anal fistulas at St. Mark's Hospital.

Fistula-in-ano after episiotomy
Obstetrics & Gynecology, 1999In the past 2 years, we treated three women with fourth-degree lacerations or episiotomy infections presenting with persistent pain and drainage not responding to standard treatment.These women were referred for evaluation 5 weeks, 3.5 months, and 2 years postpartum. After diagnosing fistula-in-ano, we treated them with fistulotomy and curettage, which

The American Journal of Surgery, 1953
Abstract It may be stated that fistulas in infants are found predominately in male patients. They are also invariably in lateral situations, taking origin from a lateral crypt, and presenting a secondary opening in a lateral perianal area. The reasons for this peculiarity are perhaps hypothetical.

Fistulography for fistula-in-ano
Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1985In order to assess fistulography for anal fistula, 25 fistulograms were reviewed. The results as for extensions and internal openings were compared with the surgical findings. Fistulograms were correct in only 16 percent. False-positive results occurred in 10 percent. Fistulography is inaccurate and unreliable.

Clinical Radiology, 1998
Summary This review has detailed the pathoanatomy of fistula-in-ano, and attempted to explain why pre-operative classification is so important to both patient and surgeon. This is one area in which recent radiological developments, most notably MRI, have made real and tangible differences to patients.

A fistula is an abnormal connection between two epithelial lined surfaces. The classification system for fistula-in-ano has undergone numerous revisions to arrive at the Parks classification system, which is predominantly used. From a purely practical standpoint, fistulae are frequently classified as either simple or complex.

Western journal of medicine and surgery
Abstract Suppurative diseases of the anal canal can be either acute or chronic. A fistula in ano is characterized as an abnormal tract lined with granulation tissue, connecting a primary opening inside the anal canal to an external opening outside, which represents the path through which the abscess has drained.

1991
Anal fistula has long been notorious for its tendency to recur after operation and for the great difficulty in achieving a lasting cure while avoiding damage to the mechanism of anal continence. It was these unfavourable circumstances that led some surgeons to take a special interest in its management and were responsible for the establishment by ...
