What Is Fistulectomy?
Fistulectomy is a surgical procedure in which the entire fistula tract is completely removed to eliminate infection and prevent recurrence.
Unlike fistulotomy (where the tract is opened), fistulectomy involves excising the whole fistula tunnel, making it a definitive treatment option in selected cases.
It is commonly recommended for:
- Simple fistulas
- Clearly defined fistula tracts
- Recurrent infection cases
- Patients for whom complete tract removal is necessary
When Is Fistulectomy Recommended?
Dr. Soham Patel may recommend fistulectomy if:
- The fistula tract is well-defined
- There is repeated infection or abscess
- Other conservative treatments have failed
- The anatomy allows safe removal without affecting continence
A detailed examination and imaging (MRI fistulography if required) help determine the most suitable surgical approach.
