BOTULINUM TOXIN (BOTOX®) INJECTIONBotulinum toxin is injected directly into the internal anal sphincter muscle to promote anal sphincter relaxation and subsequent healing. This injection results in full healing in approximately 50-80% of patients. Injections are performed as an outpatient, same-day surgery procedure and, occasionally, can be performed in the office setting. Recurrences may occur in up to 40% of patients, but patients may be re-injected with good rates of fissure healing. Patients in whom Botulinum toxin injection fails are often recommended for traditional surgical sphincterotomy.https://www.fascrs.org/patients/disease-condition/anal-fissure-expanded-information
