Summary

Anal fistula is an abnormal tract communicating an external opening in the perianal skin with an internal opening in the anal canal. Anal fistula is treated by fistulotomy . sphincter sparing procedures are usually done under general anesthesia omitting neuromuscular blocking agents in order to preserve sphincter tone intraoperatively. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of caudal block analgesia versus perianal block analgesia combined with general anesthesia on the postoperative analgesic profile and the tone of external anal sphincter in sphincter sparing surgery.

Conditions

  • Acute Post Operative Pain
  • Motor Activity

Interventions

PROCEDURE

caudal block

injection of local anesthestic through the scral hiatus into the sacral canal to reach caudal epidural space

PROCEDURE

perianal block

local anesthestic infiltration in the perianal area to block terminal branches of the nerves supplying the anal canal
