#Fistula

[vodkaneki]

Alright, so through the years I've learnt things and from one thing to another, all those things I learnt added up to one big whole thing that's been living rent free in my head for long enough, so it's time for me to tell you the story and buckle up, because it is a wild ride.

So why are barbershops poles white, red and blue? It's to symbolize the bandages, the blood and the veins. Before there were actual doctors, barbers didn't only shave beards, but also did some bloodletting and medical procedures.

Now, who was Monsieur Félix? Monsieur Charles-François Félix was a barber-surgeon from France born in the 17th century who was tasked with the delicate job of taking care of King Louis XIV of France's anal fistula.

On January 15th of 1685, the King's Physician discovered a swelling in His Majesty's royal derrière.

By February 18th an abscess had formed and by May 2 a fistula appeared.

Before I go further, what in the ungodly hell is a fistula? You may ask?!

A fistula is an abnormal connection between two body parts, such as an organ or blood vessel and another structure. Fistulas are usually the result of an injury or surgery. Infection or inflammation can also cause a fistula to form.

Fistulas may occur in many parts of the body such as the general butt area.

They first tried enemas and poultices to help, but to no avail. Since physicians at the time did not cut into their patient, the task was given to Monsieur Felix who was very much intimidated by that monumental, but yet delicate operation.

He then asked for six months (during which the poor King had to endure the pain) to prepare for the operation. He practiced on 75 mens from prison and countryside (Oh the ethics of that!!) to prepare his two new inventions:

The Royally Curved scalpel

And the retractor

The operation that was performed on November 18th, 1686 was a success and within 3 months the King was back to do his kingly activities.

Monsieur Felix did not follow suit on these operations, but was rewarded with money, lands and the title of Charles-François Félix de Tassy.

The courage of both Monsieur Felix and the King gave a newfound respectability to surgeons. On December 18, 1731, the king’s grandson, Louis XV opened the Royal Academy of Surgery, now known as the National Academy of Surgery. There you will find this portrait of Charles-François Felix with the caption: Louis XIV's first surgeon.

The royal fistula that changed the face of surgery

BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!

To celebrate the successful surgery, it is said that a famous hymn was written and performed for him: God Save The King. The actual British anthem is said to have taken it's roots in this famous piece that was originally written for King Louis XIVs marvelous recovery.

Also for the celebration, French composer, dancer and instrumentalist of Italian birth Jean-Baptiste Lully (Giovanni Battista Lulli) conducted a performance of Te Deum.

Back then, conductors would, well, conduct the orchestra with a long staff that would be struck on the wooden floor and, poor bugger, HE FUCKING STRUCK HIS FUCKING FOOT WHILE PERFORMING!

His foot was legitimately hurt and it eventually came to be gangrenous. He refused to be operated on or amputated, thus died from the infection.

So that's how through the years I learnt that and it's finally time you learnt that too!

I know, I know, it's been a few weeks since I did a Babylon 5 episode liveblog - but never fear! The project isn't abandoned. I'm just trying to stuff as much outdoor, active, fun stuff as possible into the end of this month before I have surgery and am stuck in bed for awhile.

So really, this is good news! I started this while drugged up recovering from wisdom teeth surgery, and will be continuing the trend very shortly!

Tomorrow I'm doing a charity bike ride - check it out if you feel like it! TL;DR (because there's a lot of text on the linked page!) my beneficiaries are a community bike shop, a local (to me) compost non-profit, and a cause that's not so much near-and-dear to my heart as "makes me clench my hoo-hah in horror every time I think about it." It's Beyond Fistula, an organization that does surgery on people with fistulas in medically under-served areas and trains them to re-enter the workforce.

Fistula definition under the cut:

A medical injury most often caused by childbirth in which there is a hole between the person's vagina and colon.

It is easily reparable with surgery, but in countries affected by colonialism, that access often doesn't exist, and the people affected are often outcast from their communities, as there's a massive stigma against the affected people.

The stigma exists because a fistula causes unstoppable seepage of fecal material out of the person's vagina. You may, at this point, understand my reflexive vag-clenching horror.

VenoStent raises $20M Series A, secures NIH grant to advance innovative hemodialysis device

- By InnoNurse Staff -

VenoStent Inc., a Houston-based health tech company, has raised $20 million in a Series A funding round and secured a $3.6 million NIH SBIR Phase II grant.

The funding will support the clinical trials of their bioabsorbable perivascular wrap, SelfWrap, which improves the usability and durability of arteriovenous (AV) fistula sites for hemodialysis patients with chronic kidney disease. The Series A round was co-led by Good Growth Capital and IAG Capital Partners, who also led a previous $16 million round in 2023. The NIH grant will fund a multi-center, 200-patient trial in the U.S.

CEO Tim Boire highlighted significant milestones achieved in 2024, including initiating clinical sites, enrolling the first patients in a large randomized controlled trial, and securing both the Series A funding and NIH grant. VenoStent also welcomed two new board observers, Dr. Zack Scott and Dr. Ehi Akhirome, from Norwest.

The SelfWrap device, approved by the FDA for an IDE study last year, aims to reduce the high failure rate of AV fistula procedures, which exceeds 60% within a year, impacting the survival and quality of life of over half a million U.S. hemodialysis patients. VenoStent plans to launch the product in 2026.

Diode Laser for Fistula: A Non-Invasive Solution for Fast Healing

In recent years, the medical field has witnessed significant advancements in the treatment of fistulas, particularly with the introduction of diode laser therapy. Fistulas, especially fistula in ano, can be a source of discomfort and pain for individuals affected by this condition. However, with the advent of diode laser technology, patients now have access to a non-invasive and highly effective treatment option that offers fast healing and minimal downtime.

Understanding Fistulas

To understand how diode laser therapy works for fistula treatment, it is important to first understand what a fistula is and how it forms. A fistula is an abnormal connection between two surfaces or organs in the body. In the case of fistula in ano, the fistula tract typically forms between the anal canal and the skin around the anus. This can occur due to an infection or abscess in the anal area, which causes a tunnel to form as the body tries to drain the abscess.

Fistulas can be painful and can lead to complications such as infection or abscess recurrence if not properly treated. Traditional treatments for fistulas often involve surgery to cut open the fistula tract and allow it to heal from the inside out. However, this approach can be invasive and may require a long recovery period.

Enter Diode Laser Therapy

Diode laser therapy offers a non-invasive alternative to traditional surgical treatments for fistulas. Diode lasers are high-intensity lasers that can be used to precisely target and seal off the fistula tract. This process is carried out under local anesthesia, ensuring that patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure.

The diode laser works by delivering a high-intensity laser beam to the affected area, effectively cauterizing the tissue and sealing off the fistula tract. This prevents further infection and promotes the growth of healthy tissue, leading to faster healing times compared to traditional surgical methods.

Benefits of Diode Laser for Fistula

One of the key benefits of diode laser for fistula treatment is its non-invasive nature. Unlike traditional surgical methods, which often involve cutting and suturing, diode laser therapy does not require any incisions. This means that patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure and can usually resume their normal activities shortly afterward.

Another benefit of diode laser therapy is its precision. The laser can be precisely controlled to target only the affected area, minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue. This precision also reduces the risk of complications and ensures a higher success rate for the treatment.

Additionally, diode laser therapy promotes fast healing. The laser cauterizes the tissue, leading to the formation of a seal that prevents further infection and promotes the growth of healthy tissue. This results in faster recovery times compared to traditional surgical methods, allowing patients to resume their normal activities sooner.

Diode Laser for Fistula in Ano in India

Diode laser therapy for fistula treatment is gaining popularity in India due to its effectiveness and minimal side effects. Many leading hospitals and clinics across the country now offer diode laser therapy as a treatment option for fistula in ano. Patients can benefit from this advanced treatment option without the need for extensive hospital stays or prolonged recovery periods.

Patient Experience

Patients who undergo diode laser therapy for fistula treatment often report minimal discomfort during the procedure and quick recovery times. The non-invasive nature of the treatment means that patients can usually resume their normal activities shortly afterward. Additionally, the precision of the diode laser ensures a higher success rate for the treatment, reducing the risk of complications and ensuring a more comfortable experience for patients.
