Fistula is a complex disease. Ultimately the aim of any fistula treatment is not just to get rid of the existing fistula but To save the sphincter muscle and thus prevent incontinence and To prevent recurrence, considering the nature of the disease. Most of the techniques like VAAFT, LIFT, FiLaC achieve the primary purpose of closing the fistula and saving the sphincter. However, they all have their own rates of recurrence. Considering how bothersome a fistula is, even a small chance of recurrence can be a concern for the patient.

What is PILTEC procedure?

PILTEC is a modification of the LIFT (Ligation of Intersphincteric Fistula Tract) procedure that aims to improve the success rate of LIFT in complex anal fistula cases. PILTEC stands for

• PI -Proximal Inter sphincteric fistulotomy Cauterization of deep inter-sphicteric space
• LTTE — Ligation of Tract over External sphincter
• C — Curettage of distal tract

When is the PILTEC procedure recommended?

The PILTEC procedure is recommended for patients with complex anal fistulas that have a high risk of recurrence or have failed previous surgical treatments. Some of the factors that may make a patient a good candidate for PILTEC include:

1. Previous failed attempts at fistula repair
2. High-risk anatomy, such as a fistula that is close to the anal sphincter or involves multiple tracts
3. A fistula that extends through the entire thickness of the anal sphincter
4. The presence of a large or multiple internal openings
5. A history of Crohn’s disease or other inflammatory bowel diseases

Advantages of the PILTEC procedure

The PILTEC procedure has several advantages over other fistula repair techniques, including:

1. Higher success rate: Studies have shown that the success rate of the PILTEC procedure is higher than that of other surgical techniques, including the LIFT procedure alone.
2. Reduced risk of recurrence: By combining the LIFT procedure with a bioprosthetic plug, the internal opening of the fistula is closed off, reducing the risk of recurrence.
3. Reduced risk of incontinence: Since the PILTEC procedure preserves the anal sphincter, there is a lower risk of fecal incontinence compared to other surgical techniques that involve cutting the sphincter muscle.
4. Minimally invasive: The PILTEC procedure is minimally invasive and can often be performed on an outpatient basis, reducing the risk of complications and allowing for a faster recovery.
