Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in the management of haemorrhoidal disease with 1 year's follow-up.
Method: This prospective multicentre study assessed RFA (Rafaelo) in outpatients with grade II-III haemorrhoids. RFA was performed in the operating room under locoregional or general anaesthesia.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the effectiveness of surgical closure versus just seton removal for treating fistulizing perianal Crohn's disease in patients being treated with adalimumab.
- A randomized controlled trial involved 64 patients, where one group received surgical closure and seton removal, while the other group only had the seton removed.
- Results showed no significant difference in fistula closure rates between the two groups at 12 months, suggesting that seton removal alone may be just as effective as additional surgical intervention.

Background: Anoperineal lesion (APL) occurrence is a significant event in the evolution of Crohn's disease (CD). Management should involve a multidisciplinary approach combining the knowledge of the gastroenterologist, the colorectal surgeon and the radiologist who have appropriate experience in this area. Given the low level of evidence of available medical and surgical strategies, the aim of this work was to establish a French expert consensus on management of anal Crohn's disease.

Methods: A database of digitally recorded pictures of APLOC was examined by a coordinating group who selected two series of 20 pictures illustrating the various aspects of APLOC. A reading group comprised: eight experts from the Société Nationale Française de Colo Proctologie group of study and research in proctology and one academic dermatologist.
