Filter by:The study compares the efficacy and safety of a Propionibacterium extract gel with 0.4% glyceryl trinitrate ointment in the treatment of chronic anal fissure.
This study is aimed at studying the effectiveness and safety of surgical treatment of chronic anal fissure.
Patients will be randomized to receive treatment with either a total of 20 U of botulinum toxin(diluted in saline to a concentration of 50 U per milliliter.
In this study, we will try to answer the following questions: 1. What are the salient features of the microbiota in chronic anal fissure? 2. Are these features associated with prognosis and response to therapy? 3. Does an anal fissure swab and anal fissure tissue give comparable bacteriological results?
The existing literature stresses the better efficacy of polyethylene glycol (PEG) over other stool softeners like lactulose or isabgol to improve functional constipation. But there is no consensus regarding the efficacy of PEG alone vs lactulose combined with isabgol used as stool softeners, frequently used for relieving acute constipation in an acute fissure in ano. Hence a good quality randomised study to compare both efficacies is the need of the hour.
This study is aimed at studying the effectiveness and safety of surgical treatment of chronic anal fissure.
Anal fissure define as a superficial tearing in mucosa on the anoderm surface distal to dentate line . The most important factor is hard stool passing with trauma to anal mucosa. But, diarrhea diarrhea has been another important etiology that happen after some conditions like gastroenteritis, laxative over use, during chemotherapy, and ulcerative colitis exacerbation . In these conditions, it seems the change of stool PH maybe the main reason of inflammation and ulcer in acute phase. The treatment of acute is medical management with change in bowel habits and conservative therapy such as local lubricant, local vasodilator, and warm sitz bath to improve blood supply and wound healing. This research clinical trial is designed to show the effect of Asacol suppository in the management of acute fissure due to diarrhea. The hypothesis of this research clinical trial has been referred to the cause of acute fissure ulcer because of diarrhea.
While some investigators found oral metronidazole to be effective in reducing pain after hemorrhoidectomy, other researchers did not find a significant analgesic effect of systemic metronidazole. On the other hand, topical application of metronidazole had more consistent favorable results as Ala et al documented a remarkable analgesic effect of topical metronidazole 10% after excisional hemorrhoidectomy which was in line with Nicholson and Armestrong who also concluded similar results. No previous study compared the analgesic effect of topical and oral metronidazole after anorectal surgery. Therefore, the present trial was conducted to compare the impact of oral versus systemic metronidazole on pain and recovery after surgery for benign anorectal conditions.
Anal fissure is a common anorectal diseases characterized by tear of the anoderm from the dentate line to the anal verge leading to pain and bleeding during and post defecation. It may be a benign disease, but patients suffering from disease report significantly impacted quality of life especially when it becomes chronic. Several treatment modalities have been studied for chronic anal fissure, and topical calcium channel blockers (CCB) showed promising benefit and side effect profile in treatment of chronic anal fissure. Topical Diltiazem and Nifedipine are currently widely used CCBs for chronic anal fissure after multiple studies showing their benefits compared to different agents or modalities. To the investigators' knowledge, there is no study comparing the efficacy of topical Diltiazem and Nifedipine directly. The investigators aim to design a pragmatic randomized clinical trial to compare the efficacy, and side effect profile of topical Nifedipine and Diltiazem in treatment of chronic anal fissure.
The treatment of anal fissure is mainly surgical. There are complications to this treatment, including damage to the inner anal sphincter and the appearance of fecal incontinence. Anal dilators are devices that allow gradual enlargement of the anus. To date, the use of these dilators has been in cases of sphincter scarring after a surgical procedure that has caused emptying difficulties. Only recently has the use of anal dilators been tried as a treatment for acute anal fissure. The study is designated to examine whether healing of the fissure can be achieved by conservative treatment with anal extensions and obviating the need for surgical treatment.
