Management of benign anorectal disorders is challenging for the treating surgeons as the patients are highly distressed, the symptoms are always alarming, and surgical intervention may be associated with lifelong disabilities such as loss of sphincter control. Written by highly experienced colorectal surgeons, this book provides detailed notes on optimal management of these disorders including pre- and post-operative management. Chapters cover the entire range of benign disorders such as hemorrhoids, fissure, fistula-in-ano, anorectal injuries, anal incontinence, rectal prolapse, pelvic floor disorders, benign tumors and ulcers, and strictures.

Benign Anorectal Disorders is an essential reading for colorectal surgeons, general surgeons, fellows-in-training and the post-graduate students.
Conducting research requires resources to meet the research need. The resources in the research institutes/ centers are often inadequate, limiting the research outcome. Research grants help overcome those limitations and help the researchers carry out quality research without any restriction. Grant proposal writing is an essential skill to be mastered by every researcher. However, the majority of the medical schools, except the few research institutes, do not have a structured learning module for obtaining grants. On most occasions, the skill of writing grant proposals goes by self-learning. For students, it is burdening due to the tremendous time consumed to learn the craft of writing the g...

This Research Topic is in collaboration with Colorectal Disease Centre . Over the past few years, there have been several advancements in proctology and colorectal surgery. Consequently, the need to have a tailored treatment for each patient emerged. This revolution involved both benign (haemorrhoidal disease, anal and pilonidal fistula, diverticulitis, fecal incontinence, inflammatory bowel diseases) and malignant (colorectal cancer) disorders. In addition, translational research and targeted therapies have improved the outcome and prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer. In the present Research Topic, we are encouraging experienced colleagues to submit original research articles, case studies, and review articles regarding the main points of debate of proctology and colorectal cancer.
