No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Lateral internal sphinterotomy (LIS) is the gold standard against which all treatments are compared with a healing rate over 92%. However, the most serious complication of this procedure is anal incontinence. To overcome these problems, continued efforts are being tried to find less invasive treatments modalities for anal fissure that is as effective as surgical therapy with lower morbidity.
