Effect of Shengji Yuhong Ointment in Promoting Healing of Postoperative Wound of Tuberculous Perianal Abscess and Anal Fistula

[Objective] To observe the therapeutic effect of Shengji Yuhong Ointment (SYO) in promoting healing of postoperative wound of tuberculous perianal abscess and anal fistula. [ Methods ] Forty cases of tuberculous perianal abscess and anal fistula after operation were divided into group A ( n = 20) and group B ( n = 20) according to the odd-or even-numbered days of admissions. Group A was treated with external application of SYO and group B with external application of vaseline ointment. After treatment, the healing of postoperative wound was observed in the two groups. [Results] In group A, the time for the ceasing of exudates from wound surface, for the formation of granulation and epithelial tissue, and for the healing of wound was shorter than that in group B ( P 0.05) . Wound healing rate was 70.0% in group A 21 days after operation, which was higher than 15.0% in group B ( P 0.01). [Conclusion] SYO can promote the healing of postoperative wound of tuberculous perianal abscess and anal fistula.
