Treatment of acute paraproctitis by latex ligature method

: A new procedure of operation in acute paraproctitis with transsphincteral purulent canal is proposed. The method is based on deferral transection of sphincter's portion by latex ligature, which ensure minimal diastasis of muscular ends and prevents the development of anal sphincter insufficiency. 35 patients with different forms of transsphincteral purulent canal were operated by this technique. There were other recurrences or anal sphincter insufficiency.
