Exploring the LIFT Procedure for Anal Fistula
Treatment
  • Anal fistulas can be painful and disruptive, but
    with advancements in medical technology and
    surgical techniques, there are effective
    treatments available to provide relief and
    promote healing. One such treatment is the LIFT
    procedure, which stands for Ligation of
    Intersphincteric Fistula Tract.
  • Understanding Anal Fistulas
  • Before we dive into the specifics of the LIFT
    procedure in Singapore, let's briefly understand
    what anal fistulas are. An anal fistula is an
    abnormal tunnel-like connection that forms
    between the anal canal and the skin near the
    anus. It often develops as a result of an
    infected anal gland or a previous anal abscess.
  • Anal fistulas can cause pain, discomfort, and
    sometimes even discharge of pus or blood. Without
    proper treatment, they can persist and lead to
    recurrent infections and complications.

  • What is the LIFT Procedure?
  • The LIFT procedure in Singapore is a surgical
    technique used to treat complex anal fistulas. It
    involves identifying and ligating (tying off) the
    fistula tract within the intersphincteric space
    the area between the internal and external anal
    sphincter muscles. By closing off the fistula
    tract, the procedure aims to promote healing and
    prevent the recurrence of the fistula.
  • How Does the LIFT Procedure Work?
  • Here's a brief overview of the steps involved in
    the LIFT procedure
  • Preoperative Evaluation Before undergoing the
    LIFT procedure, patients undergo a thorough
    evaluation to assess the extent and complexity of
    the anal fistula. This evaluation helps the
    surgeon plan the surgery and determine the best
    approach for each individual case.
  • Surgical Technique During the LIFT procedure,
    the surgeon makes a small incision in the skin
    near the fistula opening to access the
    intersphincteric space. The fistula tract is then
    carefully dissected and ligated using sutures or
    specialized instruments.
  • Closure of the Fistula Tract Once the fistula
    tract is ligated, the incision is closed with
    sutures. The goal is to promote healing and allow
    the surrounding tissues to seal off the fistula
    tract over time.
  • Postoperative Care After the surgery, patients
    are provided with instructions for postoperative
    care, including wound care, pain management, and
    follow-up appointments to monitor progress and
    ensure proper healing.

  • Preservation of Anal Sphincter Function Unlike
    some other surgical techniques, the LIFT
    procedure aims to preserve the integrity of the
    anal sphincter muscles, reducing the risk of
    fecal incontinence.

    minimally invasive compared to more extensive
    surgeries, resulting in shorter recovery times
    and less postoperative discomfort.
