Overview
There is description of anal fissure by Louis Lemonnier in his “Traité de la fistule de l’anus ou du fondement” (1689). In 1989, Klosterhalfen et al. discovered a scarcity of small arteriolar collaterals between the end branches of the left and right inferior rectal artery dorsally during post-mortem angiographic studies. Botulinum toxin injection, administered by colorectal surgeons to relax the sphincter muscle and its use for this condition was first investigated in 1993.In 1994, Shouten et al. discovered the association between the anal pressure and the anodermal blood flow indicating development of anal fissure. This work also showed that there is significantly lower blood flow at the fissure site than other places.
