A fissurectomy is a surgical treatment option for an anal fissure, a tear in the lining of the anal canal.
An anal fissure develops due to trauma in the inner lining of your anus. Trauma can result from the stretching the anal canal during bowel movements or pressure from chronic constipation. You might also be at increased risk for anal fissures if you have overly tight anal sphincter muscles.
Surgery aims to remove the fissure and some of the surrounding skin, so the wound can heal correctly.
Strain during bowel movements due to constipation can put you at risk of developing painful anal fissures. At Southwest Surgical Associates, the experienced surgeons offer minimally invasive fissurectomy procedures to repair tears in the lining of your anal canal.
Surgery supports your skin’s healing and can reduce your risk for infections and other serious health complications. Call the office in Pearland, Houston, Katy, Sugar Land, or Cypress, Texas, to learn more about the benefits of a fissurectomy or book a consultation online today.
