Aug 20, 2008 - Don't get too excited, from what I've read and what I heard from a surgeon who recently went to a conference concerning fistulas and related problems, the plug has a high rate of failure currently. I've seen some sites claim 80% and this is just wrong. Fistulotomy is still the best route and plugs are now being used by many surgeons as the first step if a fistula is found to go through too much muscle. If it works, that's it, but if not no harm is done and then more complex surgery can begin.
