Abstract

Nine years experience of anorectal surgery for Crohn-related lesion have been analysed. The series regards only 14 cases with pathology including ragade, abscesses and anocutaneous and retrovaginal fistulas. Treatment was as conservative as possible except for cases in which fistulizations led to sepsis as a result of which some adjustments had to be made and proctectomies in incontinence.
