fissure or fistula
Subject: fissure or fistula

I'm a little confused, the doctor dictates "He is at a point where he is disabled by the anal fissure pain, and I have recommended surgery in terms of an anal fissurectomy and lateral internal sphincterotomy.


There is no such thing as an anal fissurectomy but I swear that is what he is saying, and I would think it would be a fistulectomy but through the whole dictation it sounds like he is saying fissure.  I am a little confused with this.  Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.
