    Medical Policy 7.01.123 Plugs for Anal Fistula Repair Original Policy Date: November 26, 2014 Effective Date: January 1, 2021 Section: 7.0 Surgery Page: Page 1 of 12 Policy Statement Biosynthetic fistula plugs, including plugs made of porcine small intestine submucosa or of synthetic material, are considered investigational for the repair of anal fistulas. NOTE: Refer to Appendix A to see the policy statement changes (if any) from the previous version. Policy Guidelines There is a specific CPT code for the use of these plugs in the repair of an anorectal fistula: • 46707: Repair of anorectal fistula with plug (e.g., porcine small intestine submucosa [SIS]) Description Anal fistula plugs (AFPs) are biosynthetic devices used to promote healing and prevent the recurrence of anal fistulas. They are proposed as an alternative to procedures including fistulotomy, endorectal advancement flaps, seton drain placement, and use of fibrin glue in the treatment of anal fistulas. Related Policies • N/A Benefit Application Benefit determinations should be based in all cases on the applicable contract language. To the extent there are any conflicts between these guidelines and the contract language, the contract language will control. Please refer to the member's contract benefits in effect at the time of service to determine coverage or non-coverage of these services as it applies to an individual member. Some state or federal mandates (e.g., Federal Employee Program [FEP]) prohibits plans from denying Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved technologies as investigational. In these instances, plans may have to consider the coverage eligibility of FDA-approved technologies on the basis of medical necessity alone.

MORSON From the Research Department, St. Mark's Hospital, London EDITORIAL SYNOPSIS This paper records for the first time the clinico-pathological picture of Crohn's disease affecting the anal canal. It has long been recognized that anal lesions may precede intestinal Crohn's disease, often by some years, but the specific characteristics of the lesion have not hitherto been described. The differential diagnosis is discussed in detail. In a previous report from this hospital (Morson and types of anal lesion when the patients were first seen Lockhart-Mummery, 1959) the clinical features and were as follows: pathology of the anal lesions of Crohn's disease were described.

  • Anal Fistula
    ANAL FISTULA This leaflet is produced by the Department of Colorectal Surgery at Beaumont Hospital supported by an unrestricted grant to better Beaumont from the Beaumont Hospital Cancer Research and Development Trust. This information leaflet has been designed to give you general guidelines and advice regarding your surgery. Not all of this information may be relevant to your circumstances. Please discuss any queries with your doctor or nurse. YOUR TREATMENT EXPLAINED What is a fistula? A fistula is a small tract or tunnel between the back passage and the external skin on the buttocks. This is usually the result of a previous abscess which has drained but which has not fully healed. This results in an intermittent or persistent discharge or leaking of pus or blood. Once a tract has been formed it will remain in place as long as there is pus draining through it. There are different types of fistula. Some develop as a single tract from your rectum (back passage) through to the external skin (simple fistula). Others may branch of into different directions creating more than one tract (complex fistula). How can a fistula be treated? Treatment for a fistula varies from person to person depending on the type of fistula and how each individual fistula responds following surgery. Most of these procedures are carried out as a day case procedure. You will come to the Day ward on the morning of your procedure. You will usually be able to go home the same day once you have recovered from your anaesthetic. The aim of treating a fistula is to drain away any pus allowing inflammation to settle and ultimately the tract to heal.

  • Funding Research to Fight Diseases of the Gut, Liver & Pancreas
    FUNDING RESEARCH TO FIGHT DISEASES OF THE GUT, LIVER & PANCREAS THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM THIS FACTSHEET IS ABOUT ANAL FISTULAS An anal fistula is a channel that develops between the end of the bowel and the skin near the anus. CAUSES WHAT IS THE CAUSE OF ANAL FISTULAS? Anal fistulas are normally caused by an infection around the anus. The infection causes a build-up of pus (abscess) that leaves a channel behind when it has drained away. The channel (fistula) persists causing symptoms of pain and irritation, smelly discharge from near the anus that can look like pus or blood, and painful swellings (abscesses). The end of the fistula may be visible as a hole or small lump in the skin close to the anus. More rarely a fistula develops due to other medical conditions such as Crohn’s disease (a type of inflammatory bowel disease), hidradenitis suppurativa (a skin condition), infection with tuberculosis (TB) or HIV, or following radiotherapy or chemotherapy cancer treatment. A fistula is a channel (or sinus) between the end of the bowel (anus or rectum) and the skin near the anus (as in this image.) DIAGNOSIS HOW ARE FISTULAS DIAGNOSED? Your doctor will examine you and ask about your symptoms. Some fistulas can be easy to see but others might need to be identified by using an MRI or specialist ultrasound scan to see where the tract is. HOW CAN ANAL FISTULAS AFFECT YOU? An anal infection or abscess is quite common and does not always lead to a fistula. Fistulas may result in pain, itching and a smelly discharge.

S Afr J Surg 2012;50(3):104-105. DOI:10.7196/SAJS.1339 Case report A 71-year-old man presented with possible gastric outlet obstruction. Previously treated for ulcerative colitis, he had had a colectomy and had undergone Park’s procedure (construction of an ileal-anal pouch). At presentation, the patient’s main complaint was a 4-day history of abdominal pain and vomiting. He was dehydrated, with associated metabolic alkalosis. He also had a history of acute-on- chronic renal failure, diabetes and hypertension. On admission, plain abdominal radiographs (Figs 1 and 2) demonstrated signs of small-bowel obstruction, multiple radio- opaque stones (including one large one) in the region of the right hypochondrium, and intrabiliary gas. The patient therefore represented a classic case of Rigler’s triad, indicating ‘gallstone ileus’. An ultrasound scan of the abdomen confirmed the pneumobilia and multiple small stones in the gallbladder. Also there was no Fig. 1. A supine abdominal radiograph demonstrating multiple, radio-opaque intra- or extrahepatic bile duct dilation, and there were no signs of stones in the right hypochondrium. (Some of these stones may be located in cholecystitis.
