Fissurectomy is a surgical procedure used to treat anal fissures, which are small tears in the lining of the anus. Anal fissures can cause pain, bleeding, and discomfort during bowel movements. During a fissurectomy, a surgeon makes an incision around the affected area and removes the damaged tissue. The surgical site is then closed with sutures. In some cases, the surgeon may use a seton, which is a loop of material that is placed through the fissure to help drain any infection or fluid. Recovery time after a fissurectomy can vary depending on the extent of the surgery and the patient's overall health. Patients may experience some pain and discomfort after surgery, but this can usually be managed with pain medication. It is important to follow the post-operative instructions provided by the surgeon, including avoiding heavy lifting and strenuous activity for several weeks after surgery.
