Combination of simple advancement flap and fistulectomy to treat complex anal fistula as a complication of hemorrhoidectomy: Case report.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

After hemorrhoidectomy, anal stenosis occurs, which is an uncommon but severe consequence. The majority of severe cases require advancement flap anoplasty.

Presentation of case

A 50-year-old female patient with a history of hemorrhoidectomy 10 months prior to admission complained of difficulty defecating, pain, and incomplete evacuation sensation, as well as a hole on the right side of the anal canal through which feces unintentionally passed. On the physical examination, we found that the anal lumen was partially obstructed, which did not allow the insertion of a finger. There was an impression of a perineal fistula at 5 and 7 o'clock, which was connected to the anal canal 3 cm from the edge of the anus. The patient was diagnosed with severe anal stenosis with perianal fistula. The patient underwent fistulectomy and advancement flap with perianal skin. In the outpatient follow-up clinic in the first and second weeks, the patient showed no complications, and no recurrence of her complaints was found.

Discussion

Several corrective surgical techniques have been applied to restore a healthy lining to the constricted portion of the anal canal. We performed a combination of simple cutaneous advancement flap and fistulectomy to manage the patient with severe anal stenosis following hemorrhoidectomy with concurrent anal fistula.

Conclusion

A combination of fistulectomy and simple cutaneous advancement flap anoplasty is a simple, safe, and effective surgical option for the management of severe anal stenosis with concomitant anal fistula.

Treating anal fistula with the anal fistula plug: case series report of 12 patients.

Project description:INTRODUCTION:Recurrent and complex high fistulas remain a surgical challenge. This paper reports our experience with the anal fistula plug in patients with complex fistulas. METHODS:Data were collected prospectively and analyzed from consecutive patients undergoing insertion of a fistula plug from January 2011 through April 2014 at Hazrat-e-Rasoul Hospital in Tehran. We ensured that sepsis had been eradicated in all patients prior to placement of the plug. During surgery, a conical shaped collagen plug was pulled through the fistula tract. RESULTS:Twelve patients were included in this case study. All patients had previously undergone failed surgical therapy to cure their fistula and had previously-placed Setons. There were eight males and four females with an average age of 44 who were treated for complex fistulas. At a median time of follow-up of 22.7 months, 10 of the 12 patients had healed (83.3%). One patient developed an abscess that was noted on the sixth postoperative day, and there was one recurrence during follow-up. CONCLUSIONS:Fistula plugs are effective for the long-term closure of complex anal fistulas. Success of treatment with the fistula plug depends on the eradication of sepsis prior to plug placement.

Internal Orifice Alloy Closure-A New Procedure to Treat Anal Fistula.

Project description:BackgroundThe internal orifice plays an important role in the pathogenesis and treatment of the most complex fistula-in-ano. The treatment of the internal orifice is considered to be the key to the success of anal fistula surgery. The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of a new sphincter-sparing surgical approach for anal fistula.Materials and methodsAll hospitalized anal fistula patients were included in this study. Preoperative anorectal ultrasound was done on all the patients. Transanal internal orifice alloy closure (IOAC) was performed through a disposable titanium nickel alloy anal fistula stapler. The external sphincter was not cut. An anal fistula brush was used to curette and clean fistulas. Postoperative anorectal color ultrasound was used for evaluation 2 months postoperatively.ResultsTwenty-one patients (male/female: 18/3, age: 39.7 ± 10.5 years) with fistula-in-ano were included (follow-up: 6-11 months).In total, 38.1% (8) had multiple tracts, and 9.5% (2) belonged to a high anal fistula. In total, 23.8% (5) of anal fistula patients were complicated by Crohn's disease. The fistula healed completely in 85.7% (18/21) and did not heal in 14.3% (3/21). Three patients who did not heal had conventional surgery reperformed and eventually healed. Except for three patients undergoing additional traditional anal fistula surgery, the Wexner incontinence scores of other patients did not change after surgery compared with before surgery.ConclusionsIOAC is a novel sphincter-saving technique that is simply effective in treating anal fistula containing Crohn's anal fistula.

Delayed pancreatic fistula: An unaccustomed complication following pancreaticoduodenectomy- a rare case report.

Project description:Introductionand Importance: Post-operative pancreatic fistula is a morbid complication after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Though most of them present in the immediate post-operative period, few case reports have mentioned it even 7 years after index surgery. Here, we report a delayed presentation of pancreatic fistula 6 months after surgery.Case presentationA 57 year old female underwent Whipple's pancreaticoduodenectomy for pancreatic head adenocarcinoma and was discharged with an uneventful post-operative recovery. She presented after 6 months with complaints of abdominal pain and distension which upon evaluation was found to be a pancreatic enzyme rich mutiloculated collection. It was managed with per-cutaneous drain placement.Clinical discussionPancreatic fistula remained a major cause of morbidity and mortality even after 100 years of its existence. It can be overt fistula which manifest in the immediate post-operative period or occult fistula which manifests long after primary surgery. Various causes of delayed fistula are anastomotic site stricture, previous chemotherapy, infection. The management options available are percutaneous drainage, endoscopic stenting of anastomotic stricture or redoing the anastomosis.ConclusionPancreatic fistula can have a delayed presentation which can be diagnosed and managed with regular follow up.

Descending colon fistula: Unusual complication of severe acute pancreatitis a case report.

Project description:IntroductionThe incidence of colonic complications from acute pancreatitis (AP) and severe AP are 3.3% and 15%, respectively. We report a case of descending colon fistula secondary to severe AP and its management.Case presentationWe report a case of a 35-year-old male hospitalized in our department for severe acute pancreatitis (grade E of Balthazar classification).Initially, the evolution was favorable under medical management. Two months later, he was readmitted for infection of the necrosis with a descending colon fistula. As we did not have the possibility of performing a CT scan drainage, our plan was to do surgical drainage under general anesthesia.ConclusionThe colonic involvement following AP or severe AP is rare and difficult to diagnoses. Conservative treatment when some conditions are available should be the best choice; it is associated with lower risk of morbidity and mortality.

Cutaneous-Pericardial Fistula: Rare Complication of Transapical Aortic Valve Replacement—Case Report and Literature Review

Project description:Cutaneous-pericardial fistula is a rare complication of transapical aortic valve replacement; only a few cases are reported in the literature. It is part of a wide range of surgical site infection manifestations that could emerge after surgery. Due to its proximity to the heart, the risk of infectious lesions of adjacent structures and inoculation of pathogens on the prosthetic valve can lead to life-threatening complications. We report here a case of successful surgical treatment through reduced ribs and soft tissue operative trauma.

Vertical rectus abdominis myocutaneous free flap repair of post-pneumonectomy bronchopleural fistula: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundBronchopleural fistula (BPF) is a seldom encountered yet serious complication after thoracic surgery, and is often difficult to treat. Large BPFs usually require surgical intervention, and a variety of different surgical reconstruction options have been previously described. This case report presents the first description of a successful vertical rectus abdominis myocutaneous (VRAM) free flap repair of a BPF after pneumonectomy.Case descriptionA 46-year-old male with a cough was found to have a right upper lobe lung mass with hilar involvement initially remarkable for epithelioid malignant mesothelioma on biopsy. After neoadjuvant chemotherapy, he underwent right extrapleural pneumonectomy and developed a late right mainstem BPF with associated empyema from adjuvant chemotherapy and COVID-19 pneumonia. He was treated with open Clagett window (OCW) to address the infection and then staged VRAM free flap coverage of the BPF. The patient recovered successfully and has since been able to pursue more demanding activities at home.ConclusionsThis case presents the only successful VRAM free flap for a BPF involving the entire right mainstem bronchus at the carina. VRAM free flap repair offers a useful treatment option for BPFs, especially in patients with large pleural cavity defects.

Systematic review and meta-analysis of endorectal advancement flap and ligation of the intersphincteric fistula tract for cryptoglandular and Crohn's high perianal fistulas.

Project description:BackgroundHigh perianal fistulas require sphincter-preserving surgery because of the risk of faecal incontinence. The ligation of the intersphincteric fistula tract (LIFT) procedure preserves anal sphincter function and is an alternative to the endorectal advancement flap (AF). The aim of this study was to evaluate outcomes of these procedures in patients with cryptoglandular and Crohn's perianal fistulas.MethodsA systematic literature search was performed using MEDLINE, Embase and the Cochrane Library. All RCTs, cohort studies and case series (more than 5 patients) describing one or both techniques were included. Main outcomes were overall success rate, recurrence and incontinence following either technique. A proportional meta-analysis was performed using a random-effects model.ResultsSome 30 studies comprising 1295 patients were included (AF, 797; LIFT, 498). For cryptoglandular fistula (1098 patients), there was no significant difference between AF and LIFT for weighted overall success (74·6 (95 per cent c.i. 65·6 to 83·7) versus 69·1 (53·9 to 84·3) per cent respectively) and recurrence (25·6 (4·7 to 46·4) versus 21·9 (14·8 to 29·0) per cent) rates. For Crohn's perianal fistula (64 patients), no significant differences were observed between AF and LIFT for overall success rate (61 (45 to 76) versus 53 per cent respectively), but data on recurrence were limited. Incontinence rates were significantly higher after AF compared with LIFT (7·8 (3·3 to 12·4) versus 1·6 (0·4 to 2·8) per cent).ConclusionOverall success and recurrence rates were not significantly different between the AF and LIFT procedure, but continence was better preserved after LIFT.

Fistulotomy with or without marsupialisation of wound edges in treatment of simple anal fistula: a randomised controlled trial.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Promotion of healing of the anal wound after fistulotomy may help accelerate recovery and return to work. The present study aimed to assess the effect of marsupialisation of the edges of the laid open fistula track on wound healing after anal fistulotomy for simple anal fistula. METHODS:This was a prospective randomised trial on patients with simple anal fistula. Patients were randomly assigned to one of two groups; group I underwent anal fistulotomy and group II underwent anal fistulotomy and marsupialisation of the edges of the laid open track. Outcomes of the study were time to achieve complete wound healing, operation time, postoperative pain and complications. RESULTS:Sixty patients of mean age of 40.8 years with simple anal fistula were randomly divided into two equal groups. No significant differences between the two groups regarding operation time (16.8 vs 18.4 minutes; P = 0.054), postoperative pain score (1.6 vs 1.2; P = 0.22), and complication rates were recorded. Group II achieved complete healing in a significantly shorter duration than group I (5.1 vs 6.7 weeks; P < 0.0001). CONCLUSION:Marsupialisation of the edges of the laid open fistula track after fistulotomy resulted in quicker wound healing with similar complication and recurrence rates to lay open fistulotomy alone.

Arteriovenous fistula complication following MRI.

Project description:Health professionals should be aware of medical procedures that cause vascular access complications. This case describes a haemodialysis patient who experienced pain, swelling and bruising over a radiocephalic fistula following MRI. Exactly the same signs and symptoms were evident following a second scan performed 3&emsp14;months later. Plausible explanations include a radio frequency-induced electrical current being formed at the arteriovenous fistula, or varying gradients of the MRI sequence stimulating peripheral nerves, leading to a site of increased tissue stimulation. Of note, a juxta-anastomotic venous stenosis was confirmed by fistulogram 4&emsp14;days after the second scan, although whether this access failure was due to the MRI scan per se could not be ascertained. Nevertheless, these previously undocumented observations suggest that careful patient and fistula monitoring is required when completing MRI scans in those with an arteriovenous fistula.
