What is an Anal Fistula?

An anal fistula is an abnormal tunnel that forms between the skin near the anus and the inside of the anal canal. It often develops after an anal abscess that hasn’t healed properly. Common signs include pus or discharge near the anus, pain during bowel movements, swelling, and repeated infections.

Left untreated, anal fistulas can become chronic, complex, or even recurrent, causing significant discomfort and complications like abscess formation or infection.

Types of Anal Fistulas We Treat

At Paras Hospital, we handle all fistula types, including:

  • Intersphincteric fistula
  • Transsphincteric fistula
  • Suprasphincteric fistula
  • Extrasphincteric fistula
  • High and low anal fistulas
  • Horseshoe fistula
  • Fistula with abscess
  • Complex and recurrent anal fistula

Diagnosis at Paras Hospital

A proper diagnosis is key to selecting the right treatment. Our doctors use:

  • Clinical examination
  • MRI fistulogram
  • Endoanal ultrasound
  • Digital rectal examination

We also assess underlying conditions such as Crohn’s disease or anorectal disorders to provide a complete treatment plan.

Our Treatment Options

We offer a full range of surgical and non-surgical options for anal fistula:

Fistulotomy

Ideal for simple and superficial fistulas, this procedure involves opening the fistula tract to allow it to heal naturally.

Fistulectomy

A more comprehensive procedure that removes the entire fistula tract. It's often used for chronic or complex fistulas.

Laser Fistula Surgery

A modern, minimally invasive technique with reduced pain and faster healing. Perfect for low anal fistulas or patients looking for a faster recovery.

LIFT Procedure (Ligation of Intersphincteric Fistula Tract)

This sphincter-saving technique is best suited for transsphincteric fistulas and minimizes the risk of incontinence.

VAAFT (Video-Assisted Anal Fistula Treatment)

An innovative method that uses an endoscope to visualize the fistula from inside and destroy the tract precisely.

Seton Placement

Used for high or complex fistulas, where gradual tightening of a medical thread helps close the tract over time.

Robotic Fistula Surgery

For complex or deep fistulas, robotic fistula surgery provides unparalleled precision, faster recovery, and reduced post-op complications.

Why Choose Paras Hospital for Anal Fistula Surgery in Gurgaon?

At Paras Hospital Gurgaon, we specialize in both traditional and minimally invasive fistula surgeries, ensuring fast recovery, minimal pain, and low recurrence rates. Our team of anorectal surgeons is skilled in advanced techniques, including:

  • Laser Fistula Surgery: A cutting-edge, minimally invasive method where a laser fiber is used to seal the fistula tract. It's bloodless, painless, and typically performed as a day care fistula surgery.
  • VAAFT (Video-Assisted Anal Fistula Treatment): This technique allows direct visualization of the fistula tract using an endoscopic camera. It helps in precise removal without damaging surrounding tissues.
  • LIFT Procedure (Ligation of Intersphincteric Fistula Tract): Ideal for complex and transsphincteric fistulas, this method involves ligating the internal opening without cutting sphincter muscles—minimizing risk of incontinence.
  • Fistulotomy and Fistulectomy: Traditional but effective procedures where the fistula tract is opened or excised to allow it to heal from the inside out. Suitable for low anal fistulas.
  • Seton Placement: In chronic or complex anal fistulas, a seton (a surgical thread) may be placed to allow drainage and promote gradual healing, especially when the fistula involves a significant portion of the anal sphincter.
  • Robotic Fistula Surgery: We are among the few centers offering robotic surgery for anal fistula. This highly precise technique ensures minimal blood loss, reduced trauma, and faster healing.
