Summary

In the treatment of complex anal fistulas transplant of freshly collected autologous adipose tissue mechanically fragmented or centrifuged adipose tissue (CAT) might be an alternative to in vitro expanded autologous or allogeneic adipose-derived stem cells, showing remarkable efficacy in diverse therapeutic indications.

The aim of our study is to evaluate randomly the efficacy and safety of the use of CAT in the healing process of complex anal fistulas, except for Crohn's disease (CD) related fistulas.

Conditions
