SLOFT is possible even before the formation of fistula. It is ligation of anal duct, a minimally invasive method to deal with internal opening in ischio-rectal abscess
There are many ways to deal with Pilonidal from leaving it open, to primary close, to destroy it with VAAFT, to making flaps to cover it. The case should be dealt appropriately according to the lesion.

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
CDSCO and Phamacovigilance {Regulatory body in India}NEHA GUPTA
The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) is India's national regulatory body for pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Operating under the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, the CDSCO is responsible for approving new drugs, conducting clinical trials, setting standards for drugs, controlling the quality of imported drugs, and coordinating the activities of State Drug Control Organizations by providing expert advice.
Pharmacovigilance, on the other hand, is the science and activities related to the detection, assessment, understanding, and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. The primary aim of pharmacovigilance is to ensure the safety and efficacy of medicines, thereby protecting public health.
In India, pharmacovigilance activities are monitored by the Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI), which works closely with CDSCO to collect, analyze, and act upon data regarding adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Together, they play a critical role in ensuring that the benefits of drugs outweigh their risks, maintaining high standards of patient safety, and promoting the rational use of medicines.

1. Understanding the fistula in ano
and management till date
Dr DU Pathak MS FACRS
Anorectal surgeon, Metro hospital, Jabalpur ( India)
2. I am into fistula since a decade
This presentation is dedicated to my
teachers during this journey
Few of them mentioned, this presentation
They are not only our but international
stalwarts
We rule fistula in ano globally
3. Usual presentation
● An opening in the buttock, may
be near to the anus or far away
which intermittently bursts out
and emits pus
● Clinically on DRE it has an
obvious internal opening also
4. Unusual presentation
● All crypto glandular abscesses convert into fistula
● Some may not have obvious internal opening
● All have to be treated on the line of management of fistula
Hence
● Perianal and Ischiorectal abscesses can be the unusual presentation of
fistula in ano
5. Basic anatomy of anorectum
● Surgical anal canal extends from Anorectal angle to the anal verg
● Anatomical anal canal extends from the dentate line to the anal verg
6. Basic anatomy of the Anorectum
(relevant to fistula)
Surgical anal canal is from anal verge to the
anorectal junction
Anatomical anal canal is from the anal verge to
the dentate line
7. Dentate line
● The junction of hind gut and proctodeum
● Crypts of morgagny and the openings of
anal ducts are here
● This is the line where you find internal
opening of the fistula in ano
8. Basic clinical examination
● History to rule out comorbidities
● DRE to identify the internal opening
And
● To rule out if any concomitant disease specially any growth sitting above
the fistula disease
9. Anoscopy vs recto sigmoidoscopy
● Routinely most of us are doing Anoscopy routinely
● But
● Very few are doing rigid sigmoidoscopy in OPD
● It is a doable procedure at no cost and time
This slide is dedicated to my respected teacher Dr Ashok Ladha from Indore who
has been following it since decades and inspiring all of us
10. Investigations
● Routine blood tests and X Ray chest to rule out comorbidity
● Fistulography is now outdated
● Most of the information is gained at low cost and convenience with USG (
this too Dr Ladha sir is propagating)
● MRI - necessary in all complex fistulas
● Only minus point is its high cost and less availability
12. MRI is now the gold standard
to assess the fistula in ano
13. Classification
● There are many classifications
● Most needed modifications with
advancement of science
● The latest, convenient, realistic and helpful
is made by my friend Dr Pankaj Garg who
is global authority in Fistula
14. Management
● We have come a long way from fistulotomy to stem cells
● Now the management is either sphincter cutting or sphincter conserving
techniques
The sphincter sparing techniques make it more liable for recurrences
whereas cutting the sphincter leads to incontinence
Ideal management is to achieve the golden mean
That is decided by the disease and expertise of the surgeon
15. Basic management of abscess fistula disease
● It lies in 3Ds - Drain ( Abscess) / Divide (itract) and Divert the external tract
● Internal opening has to be defined clinically/ USG/ MRI and dealt according
to the choice of the surgeon
● It can be laying open in fistulotomy, Ligation in LIFT and SLOFT, Mucosal
advancement or laser ablation in FiLac
● My friend and elected President ACRSI Dr Prof Pradeep Sharma from Pune
is doing meticulous mucosal advancement flap closure of the IO
● Mostly it is at 6 O'clock
● Always at the dentate line, may the fistula be high. It is the extension, not the
opening
No issue if you cannot find IO, but please don't make one
16. Draining an ischiorectal abscess
● All have internal opening
● If not dealt, 50% concert into fistula at a later date
● But … no problem if you are not expert.
● Just give incision as near to the anus possible.
● If at all it becomes a fistula, it will be short and straight
● Extensive deroofing is not necessary
● Thorough curette and drain for few days is enough
17. Fistulotomy - still a gold standard
● For simple low lying
● Sphincter cutting should not be beyond
1/3rf
● Marsupialization speeds up the healing
18. Sphincter saving DLPS (Distal Laser Proximal
SLOFT)
● We dropped this at Karan hospital
Jalandhar
● My friend Dr Kamal Gupta is doing
wonderful job in laser surgery.
● He also has written an only book on lasers
in coloproctology by Springer
● This method had better results due to the
transaction
19. Laser is a good tool to reach depths of fistula tracts
● My friend Dr Ashwin Porwal is doing great
job in complex fistulas in his (chain) of
healing hands clinic
● If judiciously used laser is a boon
otherwise in the hands of novice it is a
curse
Very senior surgeon Dr SK Nigam has innovated
a no cost alternative of laser. Hats off to him
20. Preop
● Do not miss the co morbidity
● MRI is mandatory in recurrent fistulas
● Learn to identify the complex fistulas
More than 1/3rd sphincter complex, female
anterior, with comorbidity, like crohn's and
tuberculosis or post radiotherapy recurrent and
pre existing fecal incontinence
The pic by Dr Pankaj Garg shows how bad a
tubercular fistula can be.. He has done
extensive work on it.
21. Per operative
● Never cut without repair more than 1/3rd of
the ext sphincter complex ( fistulotomy)
● Never leave it without repair if you need to cut
further 1/3rd ( Sub plus sup,) - FPR -
Fistulectomy and Primary Repair of the
sphincter
● Search for all the secondary extensions of
abscess and sister tracts
No fistula surgery is complete without
identifying the internal opening. It amounts to 20
times more chances of recurrence
The intention of this pic is, please assess many
times during surgery that you are not damaging this
puborectalis sling
22. Sphincter cutting and repair if
done well in fact improves the
continence after surgery
Dr Parvez Shiekh Mumbai
23. Sphincter sparing procedures
Fistula plug
● It is a collagen plug developed by Cook’s
● Though costly but real non invasive
My friend Dr Ashish Ganatra from Rajkot is the
world leader in it. He has the largest series and
best results globally.
24. Role of setons
● Draining setons - Life saving, ensure
drainage and built up a strong fibrotic
tract which is easier to deal later but they
ensure that it will not heal completely
because it keeps the internal opening
patent
● Cutting Seton either by mechanical
pressure - tightening, or
● A gift to the world by Sushrut is ksharsutra
Prof Manoranjan Sahu from BHU is doing
great research in it. Dr Mahesh Singhvi
from Mumbai has developed the thread of
appropriate OH to lessen the pain
25. Sphincter sparing - LIFT
● Innovated by Prof Arun from Thailand
● Dr Prof Arshad Ahmed from KGMC
Lucknow is expert in this technique. In
his hands it looks so simple
26.

30. S.S VAAFT ( Video Assisted Anal Fistula
Treatment)
● It is Video Assisted fistula treatment
● Unfortunately it was recognised after Carl
Storz developed this fancy instrument
● But
● I am proud to submit that my Resp
teacher, the great innovator has been
doing the same - Endoscopic treatment of
fistula with 5 mm scope since many years
● Sad - he didn't publish and glorified it
Our Dr Kushal Mittal from Mumbai is doing
great work in VAAFT
31. Stem cell treatment
● Mesenchymal stem cells are prepared and
injected in to well curretted fistula tract
● Selection of the ideal donor is still
unknown
● Specially useful in IBD
32. Take home message
● Learn to identify the complex fistulas and leave them to the experts
● In those, putting in the draining Seton will do good to patient by ensuring
drainage and helping the tract to mature
● Underdo in case of doubt
● Recurrence is acceptable but incontinence is not.
33. Thanks a lot to Lybrate and you the keen learner
I am running a serious group on Anorectal
surgery since 2015
We would appreciate if you join us in sharing
your wisdom
