Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

use of platelet rich plasma had good effect in treating chronic wounds. healing of perianal fissure could be prolonged and associated with pain. injection of platelet rich plasma under fissure base and edges had the advantage of improved fissure healing and reduction of the pain, with minimal side effects.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Procedure: Platelet rich plasma injection
  • Drug: Nitroglycerin ointment
Phase 3

Detailed Description

Thirty milliliters of venous blood were withdrawn into eight syringes with preloaded 0.4 milliliters of anticoagulant (dextrose solution A) in each syringe to achieve concentration of 9:1.

The mixture centrifuged for 3000 round per minute for three minutes. After centrifugation separation of supernatant from the red blood cells, using three way-stopcock connector to collect the supernatant of all syringes into four new syringes that preloaded with 1 microgram of Prostaglandin E1 that diluted in normal saline (0.05 milliliters).

The four syringes centrifuge at 4000 round per minute for 15 minutes. The supernatant discarded using a three way-stopcock connector. The sediment mixed with vortex mixer (Vortex V-1 plus, BIOSAN).

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Nitroglycerin only

application of local Nitroglycerin ointment 2% (Recto-Relief Nitroglycerin Ointment, 30 g) applied twice daily.

Drug: Nitroglycerin ointment
application of the ointment twice daily
Other Names:
  • Rectocare - Ointment
  • Experimental: platelet rich plasma injection

    injection of platelet rich plasma under fissure base and edges

    Procedure: Platelet rich plasma injection
    venous blood drown from the patient, centrifugation and separation of platelet rich plasma, injection under fissure and edges base.

    Drug: Nitroglycerin ointment
    application of the ointment twice daily
    Other Names:
  • Rectocare - Ointment
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Healing of fissure [3 months]

      Complete epithelization of fissure base

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Duration of pain [3 months]

      Duration of pain after passing bowel motion measured in minutes

    2. Pain change [3 months]

      Visual analog scale for measuring the intensity of pain (the higher score means the more severe the pain) explained as 0 represent no pain at all, and 10 represent the severest pain ever felt.
