VAAFT: A Modern, Minimally Invasive Solution for Anal Fistula

If you experience recurring pus discharge or pain around the anal area, you may have an anal fistula, a small tunnel that forms between the anal canal and the skin. It can be painful, hard to treat, and often comes back if not managed properly. VAAFT (Video-Assisted Anal Fistula Treatment) provides a safe, minimally invasive, and sphincter-sparing option. Karan Hospital has offered expert VAAFT with Laser treatment for the past decade under Dr. Kamal Gupta, popularly known as “Laser Man of India.”

What Is VAAFT?

VAAFT stands for Video-Assisted Anal Fistula Treatment. It is one of the most advanced minimally invasive techniques available today. A small lens, a fistuloscope, attached with a video camera, is taken into the fistula tract, allowing the surgeon to see the entire tract from inside, clean it thoroughly, and then close the internal opening using a stapler, suture, or flap.

Importantly, VAAFT also offers high diagnostic value, especially in complex or recurrent fistulas where the internal opening is difficult to locate. In the experienced hands of Dr. Kamal Gupta, this technique becomes a powerful diagnostic and therapeutic tool, ensuring precision, safety, and long-term success.
