Sphincterotomy

Sphincterotomy: surgery to treat anal fissure and glaucoma

Sphincterotomy is a surgical procedure that can be used to treat a variety of conditions. It can be used both to treat anal fissure and to treat glaucoma.

An anal fissure is a break in the skin around the anus that can cause pain, bleeding, and discomfort during bowel movements. It can be caused by a variety of reasons, including constipation, injury, and chronic illness.

When treating an anal fissure with sphincterotomy, the muscular sphincter around the anus is surgically cut. This allows you to increase the lumen inside the anus and improve blood supply to the tissues, which promotes their healing.

However, although the procedure is effective, it may have some complications such as infections, bleeding and changes in muscle sphincter function.

In addition, sphincterotomy can be used to treat glaucoma. Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that can lead to poor vision and even blindness. One treatment for glaucoma is to reduce intraocular pressure, which can be achieved through sphincterotomy.

With this method, part of the iris of the eye is surgically excised at its pupillary edge. This allows you to increase the lumen for the outflow of intraocular fluid and reduce intraocular pressure.

As with anal fissure treatment, sphincterotomy may have some complications, such as infection, bleeding, and changes in iris function.

Overall, sphincterotomy is an effective treatment for a variety of conditions, but it should only be used after careful discussion with a specialist and an assessment of the possible risks and benefits for the individual patient.

*Sphincterotomy* (abbreviated as sphincterotomy) is a surgical method for treating proctitis (inflammation of the colon) caused by a fissure in the anal area. The operation is also used in cases of rectal prolapse. The main indications for sphincteroplasty are the following diseases: * Paraproctitis Proctitis Rectal infiltrate Syringomyelia Coccyx cyst Rectum

Sphinctotomy - “incision” of the posterior sphincter canal in surgery and proctology

In comparison with other methods of treating hemorrhoids, sphincteromectomy is a real breakthrough in coloproctology. It allows for radical and effective elimination of internal hemorrhoids, and does not require further use of medications. In addition, after such an operation there is no need for any specific drug treatment. **Sphincterumtomy** requires 3 to 5 days. During this period, the patient is hospitalized.
