Anal fistula surgery is a procedure to treat an abnormal tunnel that forms between the anal canal and the skin, helping to eliminate infection and prevent recurrence.
Surgery may involve fistulotomy, laser treatment, or advanced flap procedures, depending on the complexity of the fistula. The goal is to remove the fistula while preserving sphincter function.
