Why you might need it?

An anal fistula usually forms after an infectious abscess in the area near the anus. When the infection has cleared, it can leave behind a fistula that needs to be repaired with surgery as it’s unlikely to get better on its own.

What symptoms does anal fistula surgery address?

An anal fistula usually causes the following symptoms:
  • Blood or pus discharge near the back passage
  • Constant discomfort in the anal area
  • Irritated, swollen, hot, and/or red skin around the anus
  • Discharge from the back passage
  • A high temperature (indicating an infection)
Anal fistula surgery aims to correct an anal fistula and treat all of its associated symptoms. If you have any of the above symptoms or you’re concerned about having an anal infection, abscess or fistula, speak with Kaizen fistula specialist Dr. Samart Jankar.

Different Methods of Fistula Treatment at Kaizen Gastro Care:

At Kaizen Gastro Care our experts perform Fistula Surgery under different types of methods which include:

  • Fistulotomy: This is the most commonly performed fistula surgery to treat fistula. This type of surgery is suitable for simple fistulas that are below the sphincter. Dr. Samart Jankar Fistula Specialist in Pune will carefully place a surgical probe into the fistula. They will cut the skin and tissue above the fistula, then open up the fistula’s roof. They will clean and dress the fistula, leaving it open with no stitches. It will gradually heal from the base up, with healthy tissue.
  • LIFT procedure [Ligation of the intersphincteric fistula tract]: LIFT is a two-stage treatment performed at Kaizen Gastro Care for more-complex or deep fistulas. Dr. Smart Jankar is renowned as a LIFT Procedure specialist in Pune for fistula treatment. Moreover, he is adept in LIFT, an advanced procedure for fistula treatment in Pune. LIFT allows access to the fistula between the sphincter muscles and avoids cutting them. A seton is first placed into the fistula tract, forcing it to widen over time. Several weeks later, Dr. Samart Jankar removes infected tissue and closes the internal fistula opening. Being a well-trained laparoscopic surgeon in Pune, to date, Dr. Jankar has performed more than 100 LIFT procedures and has executed many perianal fistula laser treatments.
  • FLAC technique (Fistula–Tract Laser Closure): It is a minimally invasive and sphincter-preserving technique used in treating anorectal fistula. Dr. Samart Jankar Fistula Specialist in Pune mostly uses the FILAC use for fistula surgical treatment. The affected tissue is destroyed and sealed using laser emission radially 360° in a controlled manner. Laser energy is delivered into the anal fistula tract which induces destruction of the fistula epithelium and simultaneous obliteration of the remaining fistula tract by a shrinkage effect. The epithelialized tissue is being destroyed in a controlled way and the fistula tract collapses to a very high degree. 
  • Advancement rectal flap: In this type of surgery, Dr. Samrat Jankar creates a flap from the rectal wall before removing the fistula’s internal opening. The flap is then used to cover the repair. This procedure can reduce the amount of sphincter muscle that is cut.
  • Collagen plug: Dr. Samrat Jankar clears the channel and stitches shut the internal opening. Special glue made from a fibrous protein (fibrin) is then injected through the fistula’s external opening. The anal fistula tract also can be sealed with a plug of collagen protein and then closed.
