Gene context of Fissure in Ano

  • A series of 121 patients with chronic fissure-in-ano who underwent fissurectomy with superficial midline sphincterotomy was studied [14].
  • CONCLUSION: It is proposed that alpha-1 adrenoceptor antagonists could be a suitable treatment for chronic anal fissure and other painful conditions where reduction in anal pressure is warranted [15].
  • Practice parameters for the management of anal fissure. The Standards Task Force American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons [16].
  • There were 2 patients with anal fissure who did not heal after left LAS [17].
  • CONCLUSIONS: PMF 303 is able to decrease anal pressure in patients with anal fissure, to a similar extent to the widely tested (galenic) literature preparation [18].
