| description | Aim: We aimed to determine the recurrence rate in the treatment of
anal fistula and compare its rate between treatment procedures
fistulotomy and fistulectomy.
Methods: The cases were reviewed retrospectively. Forty four cases
included the study. The cases were collected for two years. All the
patients were followed up for six to 30 months after operation. The
operation style was determined by the surgeon’s preference.
Recurrence of the disease, incontinance and complaints of the
patients were evatuated in every three months.
Results: Six of 44 cases had recurrence (%14). Eighteen cases
were applied fistulotomy and 26 cases were applied fistulectomy.
Five of 26 cases recurred in fistulectomy group (%19), and one of
18 cases recurred in fistulotomy group (%6). The recurrence rate
between the groups was significantly different (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Fistula tract excision was significantly associated with
high recurrence rate. For this reason, although fistulotomy
recurrence rate is low, total recurrence rate is high in our clinic.
