简要总结
After abscess formation, an anal fistula is a common consequence, with crypto-glandular infection being the most commonly accepted causative cause. The goal of this study was to see how well closure of the inter-sphincteric fistula tract affects the outcome of trans-sphincteric fistula surgery. Patients with perianal trans-sphincteric fistulas who underwent ligation were studied prospectively. All patients had the identical anesthetic approach, followed by the operation with two years' follow-up.
