Clinical Trial Summary

Background: Complex perianal fistulas pose a challenge to surgeons since the fistulous tract must be eliminated without impairing continence. Biological sealants have emerged as an effective alternative for maintaining the integrity of the anal sphincter. The investigators aimed to assess the feasibility and safety of calcium alginate hydrogel injections into the tract as treatment for complex cryptoglandular fistulas. Methods: A prospective, single-center, case series of this novel technique was conducted in a level 3 hospital, including patients diagnosed with trans-sphincteric perianal fistulas and treated with a calcium alginate hydrogel sealant. A strict follow-up was performed by an independent surgeon at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months. The main outcome measures were feasibility, safety (number of adverse events) and efficacy of the treatment.
