Anal Stricture - Stricturoplasty

Anal Stricture – Stricturoplasty by Dr. Atef J. Baakza

What is Anal Stricture?

An anal stricture is a condition where the anal canal becomes abnormally narrow, making it difficult and painful to pass stool. This narrowing is often the result of scarring from previous surgeries, chronic inflammation, trauma, or infections. Patients may experience symptoms such as pain during bowel movements, constipation, bleeding, or a thin, ribbon-like stool.

Treatment Approach – Stricturoplasty

Stricturoplasty is a specialized surgical technique performed to widen the narrowed anal passage without removing large portions of tissue. It restores normal bowel function while preserving the sphincter muscles, ensuring that continence is maintained.

Procedure Overview

Under the expert care of Dr. Atef J. Baakza, an experienced colorectal surgeon, stricturoplasty is carried out with precision and minimal discomfort.

The area of narrowing is carefully identified.

The scar tissue is released, and the anal canal is reconstructed to restore its normal caliber.

The procedure helps relieve obstruction, improve stool passage, and reduce pain significantly.

Depending on the severity of the stricture, the surgery can be performed under regional or general anesthesia, with most patients recovering quickly.
