An anal fistula is an unusual passage that develops between the inside of the anal canal and the skin near the anus. It often happens after an anal abscess, which is an infection that doesn’t fully heal. This infection can create a tunnel that leads to the skin’s surface.

At Medicare Multispecialty Hospital, we offer advanced and effective care for anal fistulas. This painful condition involves an unusual tunnel that forms between the anal canal and the skin around the anus. Our skilled colorectal surgeons focus on identifying and treating both straightforward and complicated fistulas using the latest techniques. After a careful assessment, the treatment choices might include a fistulotomy, placing a seton, or using less invasive methods such as the LIFT technique, which stands for ligation of intersphincteric fistula tract. The choice depends on how serious and where the fistula is located. We aim to make sure you heal completely, avoid any return of problems, and keep your bowel working normally. We provide caring support and ensure a smooth recovery while prioritizing accuracy, patient comfort, and lasting results.
