Résumé

La technique de ligature élective du trajet fistuleux dans le traitement de la fistule anale transsphinctérienne haute est une approche mini-invasive d’épargne sphinctérienne actuellement en évaluation. La technique est décrite point par point ainsi que les résultats publiés dans la littérature. Cette intervention pourrait prendre une place croissante dans le traitement de ces affections difficiles à guérir.

Abstract

Ligation of the intersphincteric fistula tract is a new treatment option for transsphincteric fistula in ano. The technique is described step by step and the results reported in the literature are discussed. This innovative approach remains to be evaluated and may offer promising results if confirmed and raise new perspectives of healing for those fistulae.
