Provide a brief summary of this surgical procedure and its indications here.
Incision and drainage (I&D) of perianal abscess is a procedure for treatment of abscesses at and around the anal verge. Patients typically have co-morbidities such as inflammatory bowel disease, malignancy, or traumatic injury leading to perianal abscesses. Many patients often have repeated I&Ds before resolution of their abscesses. These patients tend to be males in their 40-50s but can across all patient populations.

Incision and drainage (I&D) of perianal abscess is a procedure for treatment of abscesses at and around the anal verge. Patients typically have co-morbidities such as inflammatory bowel disease, malignancy, or traumatic injury leading to perianal abscesses. Many patients often have repeated I&Ds before resolution of their abscesses. These patients tend to be males in their 40-50s but can across all patient populations.

kLabs and studies

  • CBC
  • BMP

Regional and neuraxial techniques

  • Spinal can be used if MAC/general anesthesia is contraindicated
  • Epidurals can often spare the anal region.

Intraoperative management

Monitoring and access

  • PIV

Induction and airway management

  • If MAC: standard induction, face mask
  • If general: prone position requires ETT over LMA. Standard induction unless concerned about aspiration
  • If spinal: aim for L1-L2 level of analgesia, face mask for airway

Positioning

  • Prone preferred
  • If concerned about respiratory reserve, can consider lithotomy after discussion with surgeon

Maintenance and surgical considerations
