Treatment of Anal Strictures with Flap Reconstruction is a surgical approach that repairs narrowing of the anal canal using healthy tissue. This method provides long-term relief and restores normal bowel function, addressing symptoms like pain and difficulty passing stools.
The procedure involves excising the scarred or narrowed tissue and reconstructing the area with a flap of healthy mucosa or skin. This ensures improved flexibility and prevents recurrence of the stricture. Surgeons customize the technique based on the severity and location of the stricture.
Postoperative care includes managing discomfort, maintaining hygiene, and following a high-fiber diet to prevent strain during bowel movements. Physical therapy may be recommended to support recovery and maintain the reconstructed canal's function.
Patients benefit from flap reconstruction as it provides durable and effective treatment for anal strictures. This advanced technique ensures improved quality of life and reduces the likelihood of future complications.
