[Fistula-in-ano treatment a modo Jonesko using brace]
Abstract:
References to fistula-in-ano date to antiquity. Hippocrates made reference to surgical therapy for fistulous disease. The English surgeon John Arderne described fistulotomy and seton use in 1376. Despite 2500 years of experience, fistula-in-ano remains a perplexing surgical disease. Over the last 30 years, many authors have presented new techniques and case series in an effort to minimize recurrence rates and incontinence complication. We offer a new technique for seton placement using a brace.
