Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this observational study is to understand the effects of anatomical factors, etiology, and complexity of anal fistula on the prognosis of patients undergoing anal fistula surgery within one year post-operation.The main question it aims to answer is:

Which factors are indicative of the prognosis of anal fistula surgery? Which factors are landmark factors of anal fistulas?

Participants who have already undergone anal fistula surgery at our hospital will receive outpatient and telephone follow-up to assess their prognosis.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The search function of the electronic medical record system and surgical records were used to screen patients. For the enrolled patients, the electronic medical record system, imaging report query system, medical order system, outpatient follow-up and telephone follow-up were used to collect data Data were entered into Excel 2021 (Microsoft Corp., Redmond, WA, USA) and checked for errors before conducting statistical analyses using R software (version 4.2.2; The R Foundation, Vienna, Austria).

good prognosis

A good prognosis within 1-year post-surgery was defined as healing of the internal and external openings of the fistula, no recurrence of the fistula, no secondary perianal infection, no symptoms of incontinence, no persistent pain, and the ability of the patient to perform activities independently
