  An extremely painful anal condition due to a tear in the lining of the anus.

• Chronic Constipation is the most important factor.

• It’s a short procedure, can be performed as a Day Care surgery.
• Patient can resume daily activity shortly.

Lateral Internal Sphincterotomy (LIS)

• The thickened, tensed internal sphincter is cut laterally.
• Immediately relieves the anal spasm and pain.
• Leads to healing of the ulcer because the anal mucosa is relaxed.

Fissurectomy

• Sometimes performed with the LIS for promoting healing of the ulcer.

A Fissure in Ano maybe also be present along with hemorrhoids as both are linked to chronic constipation.
