    The medical term for this is pruritus ani, which means itchy skin around the anus. In many cases, there may also be some swelling in the area, which is the result of skin irritation and inflammation. [news-medical.net]

    Bland fistulae may excrete pus, sometimes serous fluid and rarely feces, leading to pruritus ani, itching and skin maceration. Severe symptoms occur only occasionally, when spontaneous closure of the fistula leads to recurrent abscess formation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The most commonly accepted pathophysiology is the cryptoglandular hypothesis, which posits that obstruction of the deep submucosal glands results in infection and abscess formation in the intersphincteric space, which consequently drains inferiorly between [radiopaedia.org]

Prevention As mentioned earlier, the formation of the anal fistula is totally unpredictable. The only way to prevent the disease is to reduce the incidence of infection of the anal glands which is the precursor of anal fistula. [nuh.com.sg]

Quality of the trials were assessed and allowances made for subgroup analysis and prevention of publication bias, using funnel plots if needed. MAIN RESULTS: Ten randomised controlled trials were available for analysis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

This treatment method prevents a large scar and undesirable complications. During the surgery, the cutting seton is passed through the fistula tract. [surgeryabroad.eu]
