Nonsurgical Anal Fistula Treatment

What is the anal fistula?

An anal fistula is a small tunnel that develops between the end of the bowel and the skin near the anus (where poo leaves the body).

They're usually the result of an infection near the anus causing a collection of pus (abscess) in the nearby tissue. When the pus drains away, it can leave a small channel behind.

Anal fistulascan cause unpleasant symptoms, such as discomfort and skin irritation, and won't usually get better on their own. Surgery is recommended in most cases.

What are the symptoms of anal fistula?

Anorectal pain, swelling, perianal cellulitis (redness of the skin) and fever are the most common symptoms of an abscess. Occasionally, rectal bleeding or urinary symptoms, such as trouble initiating a urinary stream or painful urination, may be present.

Patients with fistulas commonly have history of a previously drained anal abscess. Anorectal pain, drainage from the perianal skin, irritation of the perianal skin, and sometimes rectal bleeding, can be presenting symptoms of a fistula-in-ano.

Causes of anal fistulas

Most anal fistulas develop after an anal abscess. They can occur if the abscess doesn't heal properly after the pus has drained away.

It's estimated that between one in every two to four people with an anal abscess will develop a fistula.

Less common causes of anal fistulas include

• Crohn's disease – a long-term condition in which the digestive system becomes inflamed
• Diverticulitis – infection of the small pouches that can stick out of the side of the large intestine (colon)
• Hidradenitis suppurativa – a long-term skin condition that causes abscesses and scarring
• Infection with tuberculosis (TB) or HIV
• A complication of surgery near the anus

What are the types of anal fistula?

An anal fistula is usually classified as

• Simple or complex – depending on whether there is a single fistula tract or interlinking connections
• Low or high – depending on its position and how close it is to the sphincter muscles
• The sphincter muscles are two rings of muscles that open and close the anus. They are known as the internal and external sphincter muscles.

The most common types of anal fistula are

• Intersphincteric fistula – the fistula tract (channel) crosses the internal sphincter and opens on the surface of the skin next to the anus
• Transsphincteric fistula – the fistula tract passes through both the internal and external sphincters and opens on the surface of the skin next to the anus

Other types of anal fistula can

• Begin at a different part of the colon (large intestine)
• Extend in a different direction so the fistula does not open next to the anus
• Develop in a horseshoe shape, with two open ends either side of the anus
