Abstract: OBJECTIVES: We conducted this retrospective study to elucidate the clinical presentation and outcomes of anal abscess in chronic dialysis patients. METHODS: We performed a chart review of patients who were hospitalized for anal abscess from Jan. 2002 to Dec. 2015. A total of 3,074 episodes of anal abscess were identified. Of these, 43 chronic dialysis patients with first-time anal abscess were enrolled. Patients were divided into a surgical group and a nonsurgical group… Show more

“…Others have reported similar findings. Hsieh et al found that, in anorectal abscess patients on dialysis, those who had surgery had better in-hospital survival [ 30 ]. They also note the possibility that those who received the more conservative non-surgical treatment potentially had more significant comorbidities [ 30 ].…”

“…Hsieh et al found that, in anorectal abscess patients on dialysis, those who had surgery had better in-hospital survival [ 30 ]. They also note the possibility that those who received the more conservative non-surgical treatment potentially had more significant comorbidities [ 30 ]. Similarly, Dos-Santos et al found that a predominant cause of death from anorectal abscess (Fournier’s Gangrene) is often associated with comorbidities and results in longer hospital length of stay and greater mortality rates [ 31 ].…”

“…Perianal infectious disease is a common anorectal disease, mainly caused by local purulent infection of the anal sinus, anal gland, perianal space tissue, and soft tissue in the sacrococcygeal region (Mascagni et al, 2019). The latest domestic and international statistics show a high incidence of perianal infectious diseases (Hsieh et al, 2019). The annual incidence of perianal abscesses is estimated to be 17-20 cases per 100,000 people (Adamo et al, 2016), and may actually be higher.…”

“…Hemorrhoids are detected in approximately 40% of patient-screening colonoscopies performed in the United Kingdom [ 1 ]. The annual incidence of perianal abscess is 16.1–20.2 per 100,000, and the rate of subsequent fistula formation following an abscess is 15.5% [ 2 ]. The incidence of anal fistulas is 5.5 and 12.1 per 100,000 women and men, respectively [ 3 ].…”
