Sungurtekin technique was performed through the base of the posterior fissure; thus, no additional incision was necessary in the lithotomy position. The mucosa was dissected along the submucosal plane, starting at the hypertrophic papilla, and extended for 1.5 cm. After identifying both the internal and external sphincters completely, under direct vision, a 0.5-cm section of the bottom part of the internal anal sphincter was measured and marked with a ruler. This section was preserved during the operation in a standard fashion for all patients . Next, the internal sphincter bundle was measured with a sterile scale and a mark was placed at 1 cm towards the proximal end. The internal sphincter bundle was elevated with a right angle clamp, then cut with cautery . The operation was completed with meticulous hemostasis and additional suturing (3/0 absorbable suture) of the proximally dissected mucosal flap underlying the muscularis layer

The sphincterotomy was performed through a new incision, guided by the surgeon's finger, as described by Boulos et al Boulos PB, Araujo JG. Adequate internal sphincterotomy for chronic anal fissure: subcutaneous or open technique? The British journal of surgery 1984;71:360-2.

It has been reported in the literature that healing was completed in 6-8 weeks in patients undergoing this operation. During this period, it was accepted that the fissure was no longer detected as a visual examination finding and that patient complaints disappeared.

The patients asked to record postoperative pain scores with VAS(Visual Analog Scale)Graded from 0.0 to 10.0. and measured postoperative day 3 .As low as possible this pain score value indicates that the patient is exposed to less pain.

Pre and postoperative fecal continence were scored using the Cleveland Clinic Florida Fecal Incontinence (CCF-FI) scores. Cleveland Clinic Florida (CCF) scores were used to assess the severity of fecal incontinence at baseline, and at 12 months. The scores from 0 indicate perfect continence to a maximum of 20 indicates complete incontinence The CCF FI scale combines loss of flatus, liquid and solid stool, use of a pad and the impact on the quality of life a assess the severity of fecal incontinence.

Urinary retansion,ecchymosis,itching,bleeding,abscess,fistula has been accepted as postoperative complications
