Fistula

Fistula is an abnormal connection between two body parts, such as organs or blood vessels, that do not normally connect. In the context of anorectal disorders, it typically refers to an anal fistula, which is an abnormal connection between the epithelialized surface of the anal canal and the perianal skin.

Types of Fistula

Intersphincteric Fistula

The tract runs from the internal opening in the anal canal through the internal sphincter to the external sphincter and then out onto the skin.

Transsphincteric Fistula

The tract passes through both the internal and external sphincters.

Suprasphincteric Fistula

The tract extends above the external sphincter and then descends to the perianal skin.

Extrasphincteric Fistula

The tract originates from the rectum and passes above the sphincters to open onto the perianal skin.

Submucosal Fistula

A tract that runs just beneath the mucosal lining of the rectum or anal canal.
