Perianal application of DTZ cream after haemorrhoidectomy significantly reduces postoperative pain and is perceived as beneficial, with no increase in associated morbidity.

Combined botulinum toxin A injection with a topical application of diltiazem could be as effective as partial lateral internal sphincterotomy in the treatment of chronic anal fissure in patients who have chronic anal fissure for ≤12 months. However, in chronic anal fissures of longer duration, partial lateral internal sphincterotomy is associated with a significantly higher cure rate.
