Lateral Internal Sphincterotomy (LIS) in Ahmedabad – Advanced Fissure Surgery at Shah Piles Fistula Hospital

Permanent Relief from Chronic Anal Fissure with Lateral Internal Sphincterotomy (LIS) by Dr. Niket Shah & Dr. Devendra Shah

Anal fissures are painful tears in the lining of the anus that can make everyday activities such as sitting, walking, or passing stools unbearable. While many fissures heal with medications, lifestyle changes, or minimally invasive treatments like Botox injections or laser fissure surgery, some stubborn or chronic fissures require a more definitive solution.

At Shah Piles Fistula Hospital, located in Nava Wadaj (Ahmedabad – 380013) and Paldi (Ahmedabad – 380006), Gujarat, we specialize in Lateral Internal Sphincterotomy (LIS) – the gold standard surgical treatment for chronic anal fissures.

With years of expertise, Dr. Niket Shah and Dr. Devendra Shah have successfully treated thousands of fissure patients using modern and painless techniques.

What is Lateral Internal Sphincterotomy (LIS)?

Lateral Internal Sphincterotomy (LIS) is a surgical procedure used to treat chronic anal fissures that do not respond to medicines, ointments, or non-surgical therapies.

In this procedure, the surgeon makes a small incision in the internal anal sphincter muscle, which helps to:
✔ Reduce anal muscle spasm
✔ Improve blood supply to the fissure area
✔ Promote natural healing of the fissure

LIS is a safe, effective, and permanent solution for fissure patients suffering from recurring pain, bleeding, and discomfort.

Why Choose Lateral Internal Sphincterotomy?

High Success Rate – Over 95% patients experience permanent relief

Quick Recovery – Most patients resume normal activities within a few days

Minimal Pain – Procedure performed under anesthesia with little discomfort

Day-Care Surgery – No long hospital stays; most patients go home the same day

Permanent Cure – Prevents fissure recurrence in the majority of patients

When is LIS Surgery Recommended?

LIS is advised when:

  • You have chronic anal fissures lasting more than 6 weeks

  • Repeated recurrence despite medications

  • Severe pain during bowel movements

  • Constant bleeding with stools

  • Failure of other treatments like Botox injections, Kshar Sutra, or laser sphincterotomy

If left untreated, chronic fissures may lead to complications such as anal stenosis, abscesses, or fistulas, making LIS a reliable treatment option.

Lateral Internal Sphincterotomy Procedure – Step by Step

  • Diagnosis & Preparation – Detailed anorectal examination, sometimes supported by anoscopy.

  • Small Incision – A small cut is made on the internal anal sphincter muscle.
