DLPL (Distal Laser Proximal Ligation) is a modern and highly effective surgical technique for treating complex and high anal fistulas. Performed by Dr. Naveen Patidar, this procedure combines laser ablation of the distal tract with secure ligation of the proximal tract, ensuring complete closure while protecting the anal sphincter muscles.
The dual-action approach of DLPL offers better control over complex fistula pathways and reduces the risk of recurrence compared to traditional procedures. Laser energy destroys the infected distal tract from within, while proximal ligation prevents further communication with the anal canal. This technique is especially beneficial for high, trans-sphincteric, or recurrent fistulas where sphincter safety is a priority.
Fistula Types Treated with DLPL
Fistulas passing deep through sphincter muscles
DLPL helps avoid cutting large sphincter segments
Effective in fistulas with branching or deep extensions
Useful when earlier procedures like fistulotomy or seton fail
Laser ablation helps in closure of long and deep tracts
