Perianal – Perirektal Apse ve Fistüller
Özet
Perianal ve perirektal apseler, tıbbi pratikte sık karşılaşılan, anal kriptlerdeki glandüler yapıların tıkanmasıyla başlayan ve tedavi edilmediğinde ciddi doku yıkımı ile sepsise yol açabilen yüksek morbidite ile seyreden inflamatuar süreçlerdir. Genellikle kriptoglandüler teori ile açıklanan bu patolojilerde, enfeksiyonun anatomik boşluklar boyunca yayılması sonucu perianal, iskiorektal veya supralevator apseler gelişmekte, cerrahi drenaj sonrası hastaların yaklaşık %30-50'sinde ise kronikleşen bir süreç olarak anorektal fistüller ortaya çıkmaktadır. Erkeklerde kadınlara oranla iki kat daha fazla görülen bu durumlarda; sigara kullanımı, diyabet ve Crohn hastalığı gibi durumlar önemli risk faktörleri arasında yer almaktadır. Başarılı bir tedavi için Parks sınıflamasına göre fistül traktının doğru tanımlanması ve özellikle manyetik rezonans görüntüleme (MR) gibi ileri radyolojik yöntemlerin preoperatif planlamada kullanılması büyük önem taşımaktadır. Tedavinin temel prensibini ise antibiyoterapi ve cerrahi oluşturmaktadır.
Perianal and perirectal abscesses are inflammatory processes with high morbidity frequently encountered in medical practice. They begin with the obstruction of glandular structures in the anal crypts and, if left untreated, can lead to severe tissue destruction and sepsis. In these pathologies, which are generally explained by the cryptoglandular theory, perianal, ischiorectal, or supralevator abscesses develop as a result of the infection spreading along anatomical spaces. Following surgical drainage, anorectal fistulas emerge as a chronic process in approximately 30-50% of patients. In these conditions, which are twice as common in men as in women, factors such as smoking, diabetes, and Crohn's disease are among the significant risk factors. For successful treatment, the accurate identification of the fistula tract according to the Parks classification and the use of radiological methods, particularly Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), in preoperative planning are of great importance. The fundamental principles of treatment consist of antibiotic therapy and surgery.
