Abstract | UNLABELLED: RESULTS: There has not been any case of anal incontinence for gases or faeces, precocious or late; 1 para anal hematoma (2.12%) solved through puncture; 2 anal abscesses (4.25%), solved through incision and tegmen drainage. Control in 6 month's time and 1 year time: normal quality of life, without any subjective complaints; painless rectal touch, healing of the fissure, extensible anal sphincter, normal continence. The sphincterotomy was followed by the disappearance of the cleft syndrome with all patients. Although the literature contains citations of transitory and minimum incontinence in 2-4% of the cases, we have not noticed in any; no recurrences have been registered; morbidity is acceptable. The future will decide if, between sphincterotomy and the injection with the botulinum toxin, the latter one is to be preferred.
