Disease relevance of Rectal Fistula

• However, short-term experience has been that this new method of pull-through for imperforate anus offers many advantages, including excellent visualization of the rectal fistula and surrounding structures, accurate placement of the bowel through the anatomic midline and levator sling, and minimally invasive abdominal and perineal wounds [1].

High impact information on Rectal Fistula

• Carbon dioxide laser in the treatment of high anal fistula [2].
• CLINICAL FUTURES: A 28-yr-old woman, scheduled for closure of a rectal fistula under spinal anaesthesia, hyperbaric tetracaine 12.5 mg injected into the subarachnoid space at L3-4 repeatedly resulted in restricted sacral spread [3].
• The use of PMMA beads in recurrent high anal fistula: a preliminary report [4].
• CONCLUSION: Simple appositional closure after core fistulectomy for deep anal fistula seems inferior to methods using flap reinforcement [5].
• A radiopaque enema showed a low posterior rectal fistula filling a poorly delineated pouch [6].

Chemical compound and disease context of Rectal Fistula

• Macroscopic findings suggested that the tumor had developed from the anal fistula; however, the tumor showed a positive results when tested for O-acetylated sialic acids [7].
