Comparative Outcomes of Inj Botox Alone vs Inj Botox Combined With Fissurectomy and Anoplasty in the Management of Chronic Anal Fissure

Chronic anal fissure is a common benign anorectal condition characterized by severe pain during defecation, rectal bleeding, and reduced quality of life. Injection Botox is a widely used sphincter-preserving treatment that produces temporary relaxation of the internal anal sphincter and promotes fissure healing. However, healing rates with injection Botox alone are variable and recurrence remains a concern. This prospective comparative trial aims to compare the effectiveness and safety of injection Botox alone versus injection Botox combined with fissurectomy and anoplasty in adults with chronic anal fissure. The study will evaluate healing rate, pain relief, time to healing, recurrence, postoperative complications, continence outcomes, and patient satisfaction. A total of 108 eligible patients with chronic anal fissure will be enrolled and allocated to one of the two treatment groups. Participants will be followed after treatment to assess clinical outcomes. The results of this study are expected to provide evidence regarding the optimal sphincter-preserving treatment approach for chronic anal fissure and help improve patient care and quality of life.

Comparison of Botulinum Toxin Injection and Lateral Internal Sphincterotomy in Chronic Anal Fissure Management

This study aims to compare two commonly used treatments for chronic anal fissure: botulinum toxin injection and lateral internal sphincterotomy. Chronic anal fissure is a painful condition that causes severe discomfort during bowel movements and can significantly affect a patient's quality of life. Botulinum toxin injection is a minimally invasive procedure that temporarily relaxes the anal sphincter muscle to promote healing. In contrast, lateral internal sphincterotomy is a minor surgical procedure that permanently reduces sphincter pressure and is considered the standard treatment with high healing rates. A total of 90 adult patients with chronic anal fissure will be enrolled and divided into two groups. One group will receive botulinum toxin injection, while the other group will undergo lateral internal sphincterotomy. Patients will be followed up regularly to assess healing, pain relief, recurrence of the fissure, and any complications such as incontinence. The purpose of this study is to determine which treatment provides better outcomes in terms of effectiveness and safety, helping doctors choose the most appropriate treatment for patients.

Effect of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery for Benign Anorectal Conditions

This study aims to assess the role of Enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS) protocol in reducing postoperative urine retention (POUR) after surgery for benign anorectal conditions.
