| Abstract Background: CAF is a common benign anorectal problem that substantialy impairs the patient's life. Consequently, a rapid and effective solution is required.1 Aim of Study: To do lateral internal sphincterotomy extending up to the upper end of the fissure (but not to the dentate line) in patients have CAF with hypertonic IAS to keep continence. In case of low RAP, V-Y plasty will be done. Patients and Methods: Our study was done on 34 patients with CAF divided into 2 groups, group 1 included 28 patients with hypertonic IAS underwent tailored LIS and group 2 included 6 patients with normotonic/ hypotonic IAS underwent V-Y plasty to keep continence from June 2017 till December 2017 in general surgery department ,Assiut university hospital. Results: In group 1 there is no incontinence or recurrence, complete healing of fissures occurred in 96.4%. Only one patient had unhealing fissures, postoperative complications include bruising occurred in 3.5% and minor sepsis of sphinc-terotomy wound in 3.5%, in group 2 there is minor sepsis of the flap in 16.6%. Conclusion: Our study was done on 34 patients with CAF. These patients were divided according to anomanometric study into 2 groups: - Group 1 included 28 patients with high RAP in whom tailored LIS was done by modified technique which is taiored equal to the length of the fissure which is minimally invasive with good healing rate and no recurrence or incontince postoperative and minor bruising and sepsis of the wound and significant reduction in postoperative RAP. - Group 2 included 6 patients with normotonic /hypotonic IAS in whom excison of fissures were done and the defect is closed by V-Y plasty with good healing rate and low postoperative sepsis. So tailored lateral internal sphincterotomy is the effective treatment of CAF with anal hypertonia, safe and not affect continence. | ||
