Fissure Surgery

Fissure surgery is performed to treat a chronic anal fissure, a small tear in the lining of the anal canal that causes severe pain, bleeding, burning, and muscle spasms. The standard procedure is Lateral Internal Sphincterotomy (LIS), which reduces pressure, improves blood flow, and allows the fissure to heal.
