| Abstrakt: | Background: Perianal fistula is a common colorectal condition with an incidence of 9 per 100,000. Many surgical treatments exist, all aiming to eliminate symptoms with minimal risk of recurrence and impact upon continence. Despite extensive evaluation of the therapeutic modalities, no clear consensus exists as to what is the gold standard approach. This systematic review aimed to examine all available evidence pertaining to the surgical management of perianal fistulas. Primary outcomes examined were recurrence and incontinence. Summary: This study was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines. Primary outcomes were analyzed for each group and expressed as pooled odds ratio with confidence intervals of 95%. 687 studies were identified from which 28 relevant studies were included. There was no significant difference in rates of incontinence identified between various surgical approaches. Glues and plugs show higher recurrence rates. Newer treatments continue to emerge with promise but lack supporting evidence of benefit over conventional therapies. Key Messages: While we await more robust randomized data, we will continue to proceed cautiously trying to offset the benefits of fistula healing against the inherent risk of altered continence.
