Popis: Although lateral internal sphincterotomy is widely accepted as the treatment of choice for anal fissures, we report our experience of successfully treating 195 consecutive patients with posterior chronic anal fissures by performing fissurectomy with midline sphincterotomy and anoplasty (FPSA). The surgical technique is described and its indications and results are briefly discussed.
