Abstract

This paper is to summarize the successful rate, complication morbidity, and the impact of ligation of the intersphinteric fistula tract (LIFT) on anal continence, and to illustrate the efficacy of LIFT procedure for the treatment of high transphinteric fistula in ano and the challenging problems existed in practice through literature review retrospectively. LIFT procedure appears to be an effective sphincter conserving approach with less complications and minimal impact on anorectal function for the treatment of high transsphincteric fistula in ano.
