Surgical sutures join and stabilize the wound edges to promote the primary healing of the tissue (7).
The ADM incorporation follows the
same process as wound healing.
For this reason the ADM requires a stable union with the vascularized tissue in the fistulous tract.
Following implantation, the wedge shape of Pressfit® anal fistula plug changes the inner section of the fistulous tract by creating interference between the vascularized tissues and the Pressfit® itself.
Thanks to the sharp edges of the wedge, the stability of the device and intimate contact with the surrounding tissue are ensured
allowing healing by first intention.
