Anorectal procedures focus on treating conditions that affect the rectum and anus, including common issues like piles (hemorrhoids), fissures, fistulas, and other related disorders. These procedures are essential for providing relief from painful conditions that can significantly impact daily life.
Common Anorectal Procedures Include:
Hemorrhoidectomy:
Surgical removal of hemorrhoids (piles), which are swollen blood vessels in the rectal area causing pain, bleeding, and discomfort. This procedure is typically recommended for large or persistent hemorrhoids that do not respond to conservative treatments.
Fistulotomy:
A procedure to treat anorectal fistulas, which are abnormal tunnels that form between the anal canal and the skin near the anus. A fistulotomy involves cutting open the fistula to allow proper healing.
Fistulectomy:
Surgical removal of an anal fistula. This procedure is necessary when the fistula does not heal on its own or causes recurrent infections.
LIFT (Ligation of Intersphincteric Fistula Tract):
A minimally invasive procedure used to treat complex anal fistulas by ligating (tying off) the fistula tract to promote healing while preserving anal sphincter function.
Limberg Flap Surgery:
A reconstructive procedure used for advanced anal fistulas or large, complex wounds. It involves creating a flap of healthy tissue to close the fistula opening.
Sclerotherapy:
An injection treatment for hemorrhoids that involves injecting a sclerosant solution into the hemorrhoidal tissue to shrink and harden the hemorrhoid, offering a less invasive option for mild cases.
Stapled Hemorrhoidopexy:
A procedure that uses a stapling device to remove and reposition hemorrhoidal tissue. This is a less painful and quicker recovery option compared to traditional hemorrhoidectomy.
Anal Fissure Surgery:
A surgical procedure to treat chronic anal fissures (tears in the skin around the anus) that do not heal with conservative treatments. This may involve lateral internal sphincterotomy or other surgical interventions.
