Treatment

Diagnosis

The diagnosis of anal fistula is usually done through a gentle visual inspection. However, some fistulas are not that easy to spot. In that scenario, the doctor will look for signs like oozing fluid or bleeding inside the anal canal. Most probably, the doctor will recommend some colon and rectal imaging tests such as X-ray, CT scan, colonoscopy to rule out the possibility of other medical conditions.

As there are various types of anal fistula, the appropriate treatment method for anal fistula is chosen according to the type.

Procedure

Surgery is the only cure for anal fistula, but the conventional surgical methods had many risks and complications. Due to this, Pristyn Care surgeons rely on the advanced yet safe laser technology. In the procedure, a laser beam is used to ablate the fistula. The radial fibre emits laser energy at 360 degree as it is gradually withdrawn from the external orifice. It is an anal sphincter saving treatment whose success primary depends on the efficacy of the tools and the surgeons. Once the fistula is drained and ablated, it is sealed properly without any stitches. The laser technology has minimal complications and it prevent recurrence of anal fistula allowing it to heal faster than usual.
