Comparison of Fissurectomy to Fissurectomy With Anoplasty
Surgery is sometimes necessary to relieve patients with chronic anal fissure. It consists of resecting the edges of the fissure to make a wound larger than the initial fissure, in order to obtain healing. Thus, the edges of the wound do not stick together and the healing is done from the bottom of the wound. This procedure is widely performed in France with results that seem satisfactory. In addition to resection of the fissure, a partial closure of the wound can be associated with a small flap of rectal mucosa which is sutured with a few absorbable stitches: this is anoplasty.
