Ligation of Intersphincteric Fistula Tract (LIFT) Procedure Versus Use of an Anal Fistula Plug for Anal Fistula Repair — LIFT vs PLUG  

Anal Fistula Clinical Trial

Official title:
A Randomized, Prospective, Multi-Centered Study Comparing Clinical Outcomes of the Ligation of Intersphincteric Fistula Tract (LIFT)Procedure Versus Use of Anal Fistula Plug (AFP)in the Surgical Repair of Trans-Sphincteric Anal Fistulae of Cryptoglandular Origin

Clinical Trial Summary

Anal fistulae are a difficult problem to treat. The optimal treatment for fistula involving the anal sphincter is unclear. Two standardly used methods of treatment are the ligation of intersphincteric fistula track (LIFT) procedure and the use of an anal fistula plug. The purpose of this study is to exam the rate of fistula closure between the LIFT procedure and the use of a fistula plug
