Predictors of outcome in cryptoglandular anal fistula according to magnetic resonance imaging: A systematic review.

Background And Aims: Anal fistula (AF) with cryptoglandular origin tends to recur, and multiple risk factors are implicated. Recently, some magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings with predictive value for disease outcomes have been proposed. These intrinsic anatomic features include those of the AF and its surrounding structures.
